  1. That's the case for any country, or in this case, the EU, anything being sold in a given market, has to accept the local rules, then it's up to the businesses to adapt to those rules if they want to sell in those markets or not enter that market and leave money on the table. In the case of the US trying to dictate its own rules on other countries when out of all the modern countries, the US has some of the lowest standards, is quite insulting, and yes, the EU has some of the highest standards in the world in many areas, but it's really up to the US to raise its own standards and not for the EU and other modern countries to lower them to US standards, so in the meantime, the rest of the world benefits whiles the US is missing out. Also, it would be political suicide for any European government in EU countries to lower food standards or social standards like the US wants, any government that tries would likely get an uprising from the public and that was before all of Trumps antic, now it's almost impossible for the US to get its way with how much trust it's lost. Also, the reason why it's so difficult to lower these standards because many sectors are tied into each other, you've got universal health care, which also means the system has a big incentive in looking after the health of its citizens as the system is paid by all, that puts a lot of pressure to raise food standards as well as many other standards, and I don't think the US understands why it would be so difficult for them to get European countries in the EU to lower them, the big reason is the people are highly unlikely to allow it.
