Your shitty react SPA likely won't kill anyone because you didn't bother installing any sinks and didn't think your refrigerator needed to appropriately keep raw chicken at the right temperature. But if it could, maybe they should. Maybe there would be less Meta engineers and we'd all be better off.

And yet it provides them with the appropriate tools to keep that food safe after.

Ironic lead in, when you don't actually know what regulations you're even whining about or why they might exist.

They make it easier to have safe food handling practices but they don't prevent poor ones either. Otherwise we'd have eliminated food poisoning from restaurants and institutions. Canada sees 14 million food poisoning cases per year (out of a population of 40 million) and many of those are from restaurants and institutions.
There's also many, many jurisdictions with less regulation. Most of the US, everywhere I've seen in the EU, most of Asia from what I've seen. Dunno how much you've eaten in Canada but our food scene is on average, pretty shit.
