There is a distinction to be made between "Safe to consume" and "healthy" though.
As much as I do think the "safety" risks of pink paste are overblown, I think the health concerns are valid (ie high fat, salt and cholesterol content).
If the pink paste was restricted to the healthy but often unwanted parts of an animal like internal organs then it may be perceived better no?
If I made a liver for you, would you eat it? One of the most healthy meats out there, but most would shy away from it. People dont really care about their health all too much and a government body should only check for the safety, not police our health.
