To those people who said no, do you eat at restaurants? Have you ever gone into the kitchen in some restaurants? It might turn you off from EVER eating out again... my hubby used to own a business taking care of restaurant kitchen equipment and small building repair, I used to go help him from time to time when he needed an extra set of hands, there was one restaurant in Dallas, a VERY high end restaurant, the kind with private wine lockers for their patrons, $100 a plate and such, we went in there one night after it closed to install a long shelf, the amount of food on the floor could have fed a small village, I was walking THROUGH it the same way you would wade through a few inches of water! It was the nastiest kitchen I had ever been in! They had a cleaning crew come in each night, more like the next morning to clean it up, NO ONE cleaned while the cooks/chefs were there cooking, food flew everywhere and stayed where it landed unless someone kicked it out of the way. I suspect if their wealthy patrons had taken a peek in the kitchen, they would have run screaming...
I have no problem with eating from individual's kitchens until it is proven to me that I shouldn't eat there.

Would you buy food made in somebody else's home?

As of Jan. 1, the California Homemade Food Act will go into effect, allowing California residents to sell certain foods and baked goods they've made at home to stores, restaurants and directly to customers.
Among those people are Echo Park bread-baker-turned-activist Mark Stambler, who co-wrote the bill AB 1616, along with Assemblyman Mike Gatto (D-Silver Lake), that Gov. Jerry Brown signed into law in September. Stambler's business of selling bread to local businesses was shut down in 2011 by the Los Angeles County Health Department after a story about his bread was published in the Los Angeles Times.

GIVE AN UNDECIDED CHOICE PLEASE!!
I just finished eating at a restaurant once, and then caught a glimpse of the kitchen. It was the filthiest place that I had ever seen and online they had received scores of serious health code violations over the years.
I commonly eat at family member's homes and see no problem in the food served therein. So long as the kitchen is clean, and kept up to USDA Standards, I see no reason that the food should not be sold.
i've done it, sold it myself from my home, and bought it. all good.
