Wait, we do what again here?

We regulate sandwiches, but those fellows over there regulate the meat.

This is absurd. It's yet another reason to just do away with the USDA as far as I'm concerned. One set of rules and one set of regulators to enforce them for the same product (or scope of products as with pizza or broth or even water) is fine. Having two agencies overlooking the same product at different points in its development to point of sale is not a system designed to catch mistakes or to operate with any redundancy.

It's just a waste of time and a pointless drag on the market transfer of goods between producers and consumers.
