Great post. You didn''t need to read the whole thing.![]()
I highlighted the above, because although we don''t currently have the time to commit to these tasks, I believe that we will come to understand that we MUST make the time, as a society, if we expect to achieve sustainability as a species. It''s really that important.
For example growing up the lady a few doors down a stay at home mom cooked for several families and single people every day.
You could drop off what you wanted cooked or she shopped sales and offered something different every day mon thru Friday and you picked it up on the way home from work or from wherever.
The price was reasonable and she made enough money to make it worthwhile.
Then the stupid health department got wind of it.
Rather than get fined she applied for the permits.
She passed the inspection as far as food handling and prep.
But because it wasn''t classified as a commercial kitchen they told her she had to upgrade or close down.
To upgrade to stainless everything, commercial freezers and ovens would have cost more than she made in a year from it.
Today you can not afford to legally provide this service because of laws passed to protect restaurants who bought and paid for the laws.
