I have been cooking since I was wee and have never given a soul food poisoning.
Should a non-profit be able to conduct a fundraiser without the government obstructing them? I think so.
Soon, soon.
To eat in the gummit kitchens (called "Soup Kitchens"), you will have to line up in the soup line.
It'll be heartwarmingly reminiscent of the Great Depression.
Not even military (let alone from local Gestapo wannabes) inspections; been on both ends of those.
And show two forms of approved ID, one of which must have a current photograph, and....
Well, ah, actually...
When I was a young paratrooper, many moons ago, the Army had a habit of not feeding us when we where in the field.
So we would get back to garrison after a week or four in the woods, and hit the Bn Mess hall, where we would dutifully sign in, under our own names.
Then, we would hit the third Bn mess hall, and sign in a disney characters.
Then, 1st Bn, where I was alternatively, Ronald Reagen or Casper Weinberger.
Later, some entrepreneur got the brilliant idea, to open a chinese all-you-can-eat restaraunt right outside the gates of Fort Bragg, and scheduled his opening for the day we got back from the field. He went out of business that same day.
I felt bad for him.
Let them eat lutefisk!
They've found lutefisk on Mars!
Chris L. Ryder, spokesman for the department, said the church was informed that since the pies didn't come from an inspected, licensed kitchen, they couldn't be served, according to Pennsylvania food code. Church-baked or store-bought pies are OK. "Not only pies, but things that have been jarred at home or self-butchered meat, that type of thing," Ryder said.Not too sure this is news -- enforcement is probably new though. :')
Not unless you count the mice/rts that most usually have a problem with, same with grocery stores.
Ate fish fry dinner with Fr. Mike last Friday. The fish fry was delicious, the cafeteria spotless.
Welcome to Obamageddon.
Some of the best food I have had in my many years was made in church kitchens.
Nor do they want it to be. It is a shame. I'll bet the raisin pie was really good, too.
Aaah, our PA tax dollars at work.
Several years ago I was at a chuck e cheese pizza place for a birthday party. As I stood in line, I watched a little boy at the salad bar dip his hand into the ranch dressing, stuff his fingers in his mouth sucking off the dressing, then reach back in for another helping. Did it several times, nobody stopped him. I never went back and now my kids are all too old for chuck e cheese, thank the Lord. Wonder what a health inspector would have said?
