For years, the Food and Drug Administration told the public that generics are just as safe and effective as brand-name medications. But ProPublica reporters uncovered reports from the FDA’s own inspectors detailing everything from pigeons pooping onto boxes of sterilized equipment to evidence of a factory cheating on quality testing. Even though the FDA knew about these reports, it let some of those troubled factories overseas keep shipping their drugs to the U.S. — some of which might have ended up in your medicine cabinet.
Pidgeon shit seems to be fair game for the FDA. I always assume some pidgeon shit, when consuming something in the USA.
My shower thought: I either have several food allergies, or one pidgeon shit allergy.
