“Food products that do not move across state lines? Is this what we need or want? Sounded good until it got to this part. So, if I want a Florida pineapple or Georgia peach, can that be subject to Congressional laws & regulation?
I believe the reason for the wording is due to the inter-state commerce clause. Also, this is likely in response to what is happening to the Amish out east.
Hmmm,,, if I wanted to flip off The United States Politicians from Arizona and I traveled to Texas would I need Congress approval to flip them off again? That’s where my First amendment and second amendment comes into view, my hand flipping them off is under the first amendment and my gun to back up the first amendment. I’ll gather my God given right to my food supply my way. I’m teaching that to my grandchildren
Agree. Also, they need to add "the people shall have the right to foods free of genetic modification, chemical additives and preservatives, pesticides, DNA modification, surreptitious vaccination, and any manner of toxic substances.
People are going to mention the Commerce Clause in the Constitution. It makes sense that the federal government can regulate commerce between the states. That seems a fitting role for a federal government in a Republic. But what's fucked up is that the SCOTUS ruled in Wickard v. Filburn that as long as an activity could possibly affect interstate commerce then congress could regulate it.

Ya, the Amish are north from me, I live in Pennsylvania, they’re having issues with selling raw milk.

That is covered by the Commerce Clause in the Constitution and the Interstate Commerce Act of 1887.
