What’s in it

This bill allows the unlicensed sale of food that is not subject to time and temperature controls for safety to limit pathogenic microorganism growth or toxin formation, on public property, or on private property with the consent of the owner of the private property, if the food was prepared at the residence of the seller and the food is labeled to identify the name and telephone number of the person preparing the food and the common name of the food. Current law exempts only a residence from which a person sells certain foods from the definition of “food establishment” and regulation by the department of inspections and appeals.
