A lot of companies have tried to dodge their liability responsibilities by claiming it was an unrelated third party that is responsible.
The consumer still has a contractual relationship with the vendor, not the upstream provider.
The vendor is the one who should ensure their supply chain is safe, and can’t demand a stupidly low price that gives no room for safe practices.
Especially in cases like McDonalds. They’ve owned their entire supply chain since at least the late 90s.
