Ehhhh, it varies widely and depends on the specific foods. Often, it comes down to different choices where both are valid, but come with different tradeoffs. Such as washed vs unwashed eggs.
As for food poisoning rates, theres big differences in how the numbers are counted: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9887690/#:~:….
Probably the biggest issue in the US is the widespread availability of cheap HFCS.
