fair, next, they didn't follow standard compounding guidelines and probably pumped out shitty sanitizer like Gamestop

in fact, I hope the FDA goes after Gamestop with this too

Also, $14,060 is a fucking slap on the wrist for the amount of profit they got from it

FDA should ban food coloring and all the other food products that are banned in other countries.

FDA should ban commercials that promote health products. America is the only country in the world where you see commercials for medicine.

pretty sure that was imported crap. distilleries make ethyl alcohol, i believe that was methyl alcohol.

As an owner of a distillery myself, no... The profit wasn't worth it. Because we made so much sanitizer, as pushed by the government, we got left with a bunch of dead stock. We can't even give it away now. We got destroyed from our spirits sales during the pandemic.

yeah i've heard that. a common sense action from the government would have been to buy directly from US distilleries and hand that shit out for free like they were planning to do with masks. but common sense and the trump administration dont go together.

They definitely weren't alone in that. Where I live the government started going after businesses that were doing that.

They're literally only allowed to say the name of the drug. They are not allowed to discuss symptoms, ailments, what it's used to treat, anything.

I meant to say that our booze sales suffered during the pandemic. The alcohol sales were a nice buffer at the beginning, but overall wasn't worth the hassle.
