Public Health says "Do not buy food from unpermitted food vendors"

Food Safety Rating sign
There has been a large increase in food trucks, carts, and stands operating in King County and across the country without a permit. 

Public Health urges you not to purchase food from unpermitted food vendors. 

Only buy food from businesses that have a food safety rating sign.

Eating food from an unpermitted food vendor could make you sick because the vendors don't handle food safely. 

Unpermitted vendors also unfairly compete with the permitted food vendors who work to follow the rules and safely serve food.

People buy from those carts because the food is cheaper! They pay $$$ to attend a game, buy logo clothes and paraphernalia and then cheap out at the food trucks. Would be nice if being permitted did not necessitate the increase in price!
