Gee Monica, that is running a really hard line. Was there some event which triggered such stringent conditions?
At my last inspection the local council health inspector was interested in the listings set fridge temperature, it's condition, door seals, if there were any out of date products and of course the cleanliness, vermin control, disabled access and lockable storage for any hazardous materials. But he quite gladly sat down to a cup of tea, a piece of (home made) cake and a biscuit when the inspection was through.
In most parts of the world it comes down to common sense....as long as you are not 'selling' food as a part of your business.
As a matter of interest, what happens when you have a friendly dinner evening and a friend brings someone you have not met before? Technically that is food for a stranger!
What happens when you go to a shopping centre to buy food....or go to the local bottle shop and your neighbour says..."Can you grab me a litre of milk or a 6 pack of beer"! When money changes hands on your return, are you breaking the law? It could be that, that neighbour may say...."Hey keep the change, thanks for getting those for me" , you make a profit....is that against the law?
In most parts of the world we live in a caring sharing society where we have Christmas dinners, family wedding receptions, all manner of events where we enable others to use what we provide with no interaction on the part of authorities.....
and my it always be that way!
Gee Monica, that would make it incredibly hard to be that congenial host...you would need to have your wits about you all the time.
Cheers.....Rob
