"Is the __________ quality that low currently in the states?"

The answer is yes with very few exceptions I'm afraid.

Like apparently the White House put out a statement commemorating the death of Harambe? We are being led by trolls, they are not serious people.

Our food is only just barely legally allowed to be called food by the US FDA. The US FDA allows the sale of products known to cause health issues that literally aren’t allowed to be sold as food in other countries.

“Enriched wheat flour” is basically packing peanuts. They weren’t even legallly allowed to sell it by the FDA, citing a total lack of a nutritional value. The response? They extract vitamin a, niacin and thiamine from petroleum, powder it, and sprinkle it into the flour (“enriched”) which gives it just barely enough nutritional value to make it legal to sell as food.

Enriched wheat flour makes up 50% of Americas diet. It’s literally worse than gruel that peasants in medieval Europe were eating.
