Lack of regulation in NY? LOL

[Revelation 911]

actually - as a former caterer - the laws for food safety are quite stringent. What lacks is NYC's ability to enforce - out here in the western hinterlands (Roch) - County enforcement is quite strict and rightly so - bad food can kill - its no joke.

The dept here manned by some really pleasant people, provided you obey the guidelines...we got to know each other on a regular basis and welcomed the visits with pride.

What amazes me though - is the State allows Churches, fraternal organizations, police and fire to prepare food and sell food to the public WITHOUT having a Level 1 food handler (Certification good in all 50 States) present or involved with the prep/serving or storage ....lesson learned - Don't eat pot lucks, or fundraiser foods
