This summer Iowa and Minnesota had some problems with little kids picking up E-coli bacteria at one particular Petting Zoo exhibit that was traveling on the fair circuit. The animals were not kept clean and some kids were hospitalized in a number of counties. After that all the remaining fairs in Minnesota got much closer inspections. As you know if you crack down on one vendor, you are obligated to check everyone the same way.

The alternative is to look for other events to sell pies at.
