Food terrorism poses an eminent danger to the United States, according to antiterrorism specialists. While the need for higher quantities of food is only increasing, the standards for food safety have been at a standstill or worse—nonexistent.

To get into specifics, the guideline pinpoints terrorist-tampering within the food cycle.
