These regulations, of course, have no real purpose but to kill the competition of the big businesses that lobbied for their passage in the first place.

the federal congress is working on food saftety laws that go way beyond homemade pies. The federal food safety laws will require farmers to document all food that leaves their farm, how it was grown, and to to whom it was sold, or given (to family or neighbors). The laws are designed to favor large conglomerates over the small farmer, including the small organic farmer.

Once they clean up all the ‘undocumented’ pies maybe they can get around to that pesky illegal alien problem

[napscoordinator]

Selling pies on the first day of Lent? I always thought we had to give up that type of thing during Lent. The Health Inspectors always ruin everything...

[napscoordinator]

There are reports of other churches continuing to sell contraband pastries.

Contraband? ROTFLMAO. That made me laugh for some reason. I guess because it is so outrageous that I either laugh or get really pissed off.

I wonder how the PA Amish are dealing with this.

Fr. Mike is a great guy, and the Fish Fry is delicious !!

Can we ever really trust people that bake pies?

[3catsanadog]

Jeez - our foolish laws will force God-fearing folks feel like they’re operating a meth lab when all they are doing is baking pies, for cryin’ out loud.

[Virginia Ridgerunner]

"They have more work on their hands than going after little old ladies baking pies."

Well, apparently this one inspector was bored enough to give granny a hard time at this church.

The same kind of thing happened years ago in Mchenry County, Illinois. This used to be a nice place to live and raise a family, but then a lot of people from Chicago and close-in suburbs moved in and brought the same mentality with them.

The county board of health hired a bunch of Nazi inspectors and decided to become a profit center. Events were canceled or hassled out of existence, and the little people learned to live with the inconvenience of big government in small towns.

[grimalkin]

This is just beyond stupid. What’s next, contraband pierogies?

[ronnyquest]

Freakin’ ridiculous! Ban the nanny state!
