I agree with 5th circuit on this one.

I believe in the Oxford comma.
How we moved away from using it is beyond me.

I agree with 5th circuit on this one. Me too, although it reads oddly without "and" before the last item in the list.

“canning, processing, preserving, freezing, drying, marketing, storing, packing for shipment or distribution of: (1) Agriculture produce; (2) meat and fish products; and (3) perishable foods.”
I’m not sure this exemption actually exempts anyone at all. Everyone is so focused on the comma they missed the “and”. I’d argued that unless you are packing all three of these products you are not exempt.

My mom taught me not to use the Oxford comma but I think I like it.
