Actually, I have a problem with that. Even if it was a front for parents to sell food without a permit, frankly I'd be okay with that. The fact that our government has produced an environment where I need permits, approval, and licenses to sell something is ridiculous.

I hate to break it too you, but it has always been the case that a permit has been required to sell food to the public for your entire life. The rules may have been selectively applied more frequently in the past, but the laws are not new.
There is a keen difference between "on the books it is illegal" and "there are actually men with guns walking around that will enforce this"
