But the other part of this is, is that people need to do their due diligence just as a general human being of where your food is coming from.

It does not go from farm straight to your table unless you are literally buying it from a farmer.

It has many steps in between and processed food is different.

So that is a really interesting concept.

The transparency clause in FSMA is still somewhat tied to that.

However, it's the corporations that probably nix that in the long run, because that is just one more step that's really difficult to manage.

The little tags that you have on your fruits and vegetables actually have little lot numbers on them.

And that actually will link to where the word came from.

And that is important for transparency.

But however, we know that those little stickers fly off, they stick to other things or whatever.

It's not foolproof.

You can't exactly, I don't know, scan something into a tomato.

You know what I mean?

Like it doesn't really work.

So the traceability rules are really interesting and they are there for food safety purposes, not just, you know, anything else really.

So smart greenhouses are actually

pretty predominant and they're expanding when especially when it comes to leafy greens because I have said this on the show and I will continue to say this I always look at leafy greens with a little bit of suspicion especially since there's no laws around certain ways that they're grown and I'm not blaming anybody on any side on that there's just a lot of situations that whether it's just water runoff from a storm or something like that that could cause a lot of problems.

That's why people are going and buying from greenhouses.

I buy my lettuce from greenhouses.

I just find it's a little safer, I guess, is what I'll say.
