The inclusion of meat, potatoes, or vegetables disqualifies you from being a CFO. I haven’t found that people are resistant to buying from a home-prepared item, but you don’t have to worry about it because you’re forced to use a commercial kitchen to stay legal.

CO just amended their law and is unlikely to follow suit anytime soon. It sounds like you will need to build a commercial kitchen, either on your property or elsewhere.

Very true! Since I do not plan on taking out a loan on this business and do not have the time to pour my life into it, I’m focused on making the first 15 sales. Slow and steady.

Appropo always, thanks!
