      There are ways around it, but it's limiting to what you can offer. If you befriend someone with a commercial kitchen you can rent some space to heat up hot dogs and burgers and then just keep them hot. It's not the best, but it is a work around.

      OK, don’t know what you’re talking about are an annual thing and most cities will offer more than one year permits and it usually doesn’t even cost a brand a year so. And kitchen rentals you’re an idiot if you rent. Most people save up their money because it’s a dream and they purchased it. Supplies are most likely on a monthly basis. And they’re probably barely hitting $1000 a month when you buy in bulk for supplies you can surprise how much money you save out of $5000 after taxes and everything. They’re probably still walking away with the clean $3750. And that’s without the lemonade stand and they’re full-time jobs is what it sounds like.

    $5000/month revenue is only $60,000/year assuming no vacations etc. from the revenue must be deducted operating costs like supplies and fuel etc. this produces about $30-40,000/year actual net income from which income taxes are paid etc.

  • @peachcorpffj9591

    I recommend a few changes; You should do all food prep at your place of business or if you're a home business, do it in your kitchen under a better-controlled environment other than outdoors, straight from the packaging. Also, your hair should not be flying all over the place. Wear a cap, scarf, or a hairnet. FOODBORNE ILLNESS IS A REAL THING!

Read about beef which does not have to be fully cooked .. That's why you can go to a park or a beach and barbecue and cook outside there's nothing about that that says you cannot prep your meat and cook it outside and serve the public and make your money you can literally go to any beach cook on the grill just as long as you have a ServSafe and a LLC to sell in a business you can sit there prep and cook and sell as many Patty's as you want .. there's state local and federal and federal goes over all of them and federal law state you can do that
