re: Louisiana Cottage Food Law Proposed - Update - Now Signed Into Law

BBQ sauce is ok....not hot tamales. They're not "low risk"....in general terms, low risk is anything safely stored at room temperature, not requiring refrigeration. And meat pies are fried, not baked. To my understanding, low risk does not include meat pies or crawfish/seafood pies. Those are a filling with a minimal baked shell and must be refrigerated for storage.

As opposed to a pecan pie, cheese danish, or an almond croissant, which are stored at room temp.
