I understand the address is necessary- but, I’m todays environment- another option needs to be agreed upon. It’s dangerous to have the home address on items sold at a fair or festival. It literally opens the door for people with nefarious actions on their mind.
I have a question. I'm reading about the TCS and I have a question. I have seen a lot of people sell plates and bowls of homemade food on social media. I'm in Texas and these people I see are also in Texas. Now, if the TCS foods are chicken, meat fish, potatoes and the rest, does that mean they're selling cooked food that are not in compliance with the cottage law?
I know this is over a year old, so hopefully someone will answer. When you mentioned the cake pop/labeling example.... I'm thinking of the large bags of fun size candy bars/5lb bags of suckers/etc.... Each of those items are individually wrapped but not individually labeled. I just don't read it (the statue) that way feasible... label each cookie, cake pop, etc if they're packaged in a box with all the required labels. Any updates, clarifications, or other input?

Under the Texas cottage law can my protein energy powder be shipped? I know at one time it could be shipped.
