Seem to be crossing jurisdictions, kitchen failed an FDA inspection not a state health inspection. Likely different rules, procedures, standards. Maybe it partially failed because the Feds were lax in previous inspections/enforcements.

I guess you have to define 'fail' and 'many'. Many restaurants get 'ticks' on the inspection, but they are usually minor items pointed out by the inspectors...which is a good function of the process.

We would immediately starve if we fully relied on home-grown food. The vast majority of the U.S. population does not have access to sufficient land-area let alone cultivation and food preservation skills to grow enough food to sustain themselves let alone multiple people.
