And people are like, oh, Christian culture. Oh, it's this whole, you know. Yeah. All right. Get over it. Like it is. This is what has to happen. I would like to continue eating safe food.

And I really appreciate the fact that you've put it in common language and you really have kind of formed up that common language for people so they understand what it is and what it isn't, which is what regulations are supposed to do, right?

And all of the government acronyms too, on top of all the security ones and the IT ones, it gets a very yikes. And then the food industry as a whole has a ton of them as well. So as humans, why are we doing this? Why do we, why do we do this to each other? Cause this just creates confusion. Yeah.

And that starts a lot with people in process.
