I don't understand your argument. You seem to be opposed to specificity in the written prohibition. So what's the alternative? You'd prefer it if FDA regulations didn't have the force of law? Or would you prefer it if FDA regulations were secret, unwritten, unavailable for cheddar manufacturers and cheddar manufacturer compliance officers to examine? Neither of those seem like good solutions.

It's called industry standards, and it's common practice and already in place in written legislation.
Written laws give Government bodies power to maintain and enforce theses standards, independent of legislation that needs to be passed through long slow processes involving many politicians who have no knowledge of the relevant field.

Industry standards don't have the force of law unless they are given the force of law.

"Written laws ... independent of legislation" doesn't make sense. What are you trying to say here?

You're right, it doesn't. That's what happens when you truncate a quote to completely remove the context.
