Massachusetts Employs Soviet Style Food Officer For Each Restaurant

State Mandates Food Cops in Every Restaurant

Reminds me of the old joke about restaurants in the Soviet Union.

A man who went into a restaurant and ordered an item off of the menu, only to be told that it wasn’t available and that he should order another dish.  The man was indignant: I thought we had choices here, he said.  You do, the manager replied: you can order what we want you to or you can get out of this restaurant.

Ah, Massachewsets.
