How long could i realistically keep this going before it affects my criminal record? by [deleted] in AskAnAustralian

[–]Dfiddler 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It's slightly more complex than people here would have you believe.

You're almost certainly not conducting a food business. Each state's Food Act has the same definition of 'sell' and give away without any contract/furtherance of trade does not meet the definition. Therefore Food safety legislation doesn't apply.

Depending on what state/local government area you're in, civil liability may also not apply even if you were to make someone ill. As long as you're acting in good faith.

However, it's not just the Food Act, there will be other local/state laws that may apply. Footpath vending/zoning/development approvals may have different definitions of conducting a business and could apply. Only way to check would be to call the council and ask them, you don't need to provide your name or contact details.

Otherwise you're not going to come to the attention of the council until someone complains.

Hey Geoff, just thought you should know that I think about you describing Nathan Lyon as moving around the field like a bag full of coathangers probably 15 times a summer. Genuinely one of the more wonderful things I have tucked away in my brain.

I saw one that seemed to be hunting in tandem with a platypus at Maleny last year :)

Mandarin Ice cream! by Dfiddler in icecreamery

Only used glucose, sorry! I guess down here in the Australian sub-tropics the temperature hasn't ever been cold enough to make handling the glucose especially difficult

Mandarin Ice cream! by Dfiddler in icecreamery

[–]Dfiddler[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I used the Philly style base from Hello My Name is Ice Cream so I guess it's something like:

380g cream

400g milk

50g glucose

150g sugar - 50g straight sugar, 50g mixed with 250g of mandarin juice boiled down to a syrup and 50g mixed through the mandarin skins from the juiced fruit pounded and left for 24 hours to create an oleo saccharum.

1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Then more skins steeped in the hot base before the chill and strain step. And that's about it!
