Police in Tulare, California shutdown the lemonade stand of a 7 year-old girl because she did not hold a permit or registered location. The girl and her family appealed to city council and have drawn media attention since.
Last time I stopped at a kids kool aid stand I was ascared of getting food poisoning or something worse. I know they mean well but kids having kool aid stands is not like a roadside farmers market
I can undertand what you are saying, but I have stopped at stands run by adults in order to buy something and their hygiene was questionable, the same can be said about some restaurants too.
It's all well and good saying a person, kids or otherwise need a permit, but some people just get a buzz from being in control of others, huffing and puffing like the big bad wolf. i personally find that so annoying, take these types of people away from their high positions of authority and they are nothing.
Anyway, basic hygiene can be taught to everyone regardless of age.
