Woman Could be in Jail for Selling Homemade food on Facebook

A woman from Stockton, California could face some jail time after she attempted to sell some home cooked meals through a Facebook group!

It all started a couple of years ago when single mother Mariza Reulas joined a FB group called 209 Food Spot, a forum for people in the area to share recipes, plan get-togethers, and sometimes even send each other food.
Last December, Mariza was asked by a group member to sell some of her homemade ceviche.
That member turned out to be an undercover investigator from San Joaquin County!
Authorities knew most of the 209 Food Spot group didn't have permits to sell their food. Miz Reulas, along with about a dozen other members of the food group, was cited for two misdemeanors — operating a food facility and engaging in business without a permit.

Unlike the other group members, Mariza refused the plea offer which would have been three years of probation, 80 hours of community service, and a $235 fine.
Instead, the single mom's case will be sent to trial where she could end up facing a year of jail time! Just for selling some ceviche online!
