It also doesn't save any "red tape". It just creates an additional barrier to understanding whats in your food and means the seller can scrape your data.
Its a sh*tty solution to a non-problem that places the consumer increasingly at risk.

These guys are dangerous idiots. It's tiresome enough already having to read, and re-check, the labels on everything that I eat, and now they want to have me scan a QR code to get to that information.

"Uber geek hall of fame" material.
I just spent the last two hours debugging the Bluetooth stack *in anger* because for the last few weeks I've had to re-pair my mouse with my laptop. Every time. Remove mouse, re-pair.
Turns out I had two identical mice in my backpack and I've been switching between them.
It was me.

Today I have seen more “just use Linux” messages than ever before.
Gurl, until Linux can absolutely get down plug-n-play like behavior, the general public will not be ready for Linux unless everyone gets a huge dosage of computer literacy.
And I will tell you now, from teaching adults: hahahahaha
