Most first world countries have long and vivid histories of food safety scandals. In the US in the 2000s, the PCA comes to mind.

The UK had mad cow disease, Italy continues to deal with diluted and falsified olive oil, the EU has had repeated horse meat scandals. Most recently Japan had a health food supplement scandal in which many people died.
Not sure what your point is? Especially when the comparisons aren't really proportional.
I don't consider letting rotten meat pileup an example of a working inspection process, which is what I specifically responded to, first world or not.
