Blazing Trails Through the Jungle

of Food Regulations

Blazing Trails is a 3-hour fast paced zoominar on all the laws and rules that govern food sales in Minnesota and across state lines into our neighboring states. You'll learn about the oldest food laws & the newest ones; where all the words are defined in law (like "food" and "sell"). You'll also learn about the 25+ "exemptions" and "exclusions" and many "regulatory discretions" from food licensing. Time for Q & A.

Grab a cuppa and enjoy the zoominar!
