sell less than $500,000 a year, many large food companies objected, arguing that the exemption puts consumers at risk. A year after enactment the agency had fallen behind on expected progress. It has yet to implement "a specific timetable for issuing" a process to create rule for science-based produce standards, has not completed rules for foreign supplier verification, and must still create a guidance that will help schools and childcare programs lessen allergy risks for school-age children. A similar set of New Zealand rules, Food Bill 160-2, has been towards passage since 2010. The primary effects expected are to tie New Zealand to Codex Alimentarius and the World Trade Organization permanently, although those international agreements will be constantly adjusted.

As of September 18, 2018 all brewers need to be in compliance with the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA). Under the final rules the FDA is obligated to inspect every brewery in the USA over the next few years. The FDA inspector will inspect and
