What I meant by that is that some church kitchens (most, I'll bet)
aren't licensed for cooking real food; i.e., food served from the
kitchen was purchased elsewhere (deli trays, cold salads, etc.). The
church I attend is licensed for food prep with all the stainless steel
stuff that's required, and community meals are prepared and served there
regularly but the church's menu for its dead spreads is the sandwich,
chips, slaw, and pickles thang, all purchased; dessert (bars, cake)
comes from congregation members. Did I make that even more confusing?
My thinker's fuzzier than usual right now.
