1. Except as otherwise provided in this
section, it is unlawful for any person to operate a food establishment unless
the person possesses a valid permit issued to him or her by the food safety
authority.
2. The food safety authority may exempt a
food establishment from the provisions of this chapter if the food safety
authority determines that the food which is sold, offered or displayed for
sale, or served at the establishment does not constitute a potential or actual
hazard to the public health.
3. Food that is prepared in a private home
and given away free of charge or consideration of any kind is exempt from the
provisions of this chapter, unless it is given to a food establishment.
4. Except as otherwise provided in
subsection 5, food that is prepared in a private home must not be sold, or
offered or displayed for sale or for compensation or contractual consideration
of any kind, unless the person preparing the food possesses a valid permit
issued to him or her by the food safety authority for that purpose.
5. A religious, charitable or other
nonprofit organization may, without possessing a permit from the food safety
authority, sell food occasionally to raise money, whether or not the food was
prepared in a private home, if the sale occurs on the premises of the
organization. If the sale is to occur off the premises of the organization, a
permit from the food safety authority is required unless an exemption is
granted pursuant to subsection 2.
