There is no way to enforce data integrity between related tables by virtue of the data model for one thing.

  ?? foreign keys?

  isn't that what the fk are for? food_uuid for example. I concede I wouldn't call it uuid but I don't see a problem keeping the data straight.

  I don't get this argument. Foreign key constraints are part of the schema. What should the primary key be if not a UUID?

    an integer id?

    A natural key. It is not always possible, but when it is it should be used.
