    Can you sell popped popcorn with proper labeling at the Farmers Market? Does this fall under the Cottage Foods Act?

    I’m not sure if that is allowed under the cottage food law. The law recently changed to give health depts the ability to allow other types of nonperishable foods, so I recommend that you ask your health dept. If you want to pop the popcorn at the market, you wouldn’t be able to use the cottage food law.

    Did you even find out about the popcorn? I am trying to sell popped popcorn at a farmer’s market and no one seems to know the “rules” for popped popcorn.

    Cara, the health dept should know the rules since they are the dept that is in charge of enforcing them. If they can’t give you an answer, then there may not be one.
