You'll starve, but you won't get Salmonella.

I found out today that my parents' home church in Lakeland, Florida no longer has a food pantry for the homeless, the poor, and the needy. Why? Because Florida state law requires them to have a dedicated room and a refrigerator of certain specifications. So apparently they can't pass out canned food because they don't have a refrigerator.

As we look to the burgeoning economic crisis, we have to congratulate states like Florida and California for their tendency to legislate the size of the shrubbery around your church. You'll find it much harder to find food now than before, but at least you won't get salmonella.
