Cargo bike a legitimate food vehicle?

From The Grid.

 

"I bought a three-wheeled Worksman. I bought it brand new from a guy up in Madison for $300 – they’re usually about a grand. I drew up some plans where we had a little hand washing sink and a propane canister to keep the food at a safe temperature. I took it all in to Consumer Affairs and Business Protection and they said nope, no bicycles. I said, if bikes are supposed be treated like vehicles – no cell phones, no texting, stopping at stop signs and everything – why can’t you treat this as a vehicle. And they just said, no bicycles."

 

What can we do about this?

Sure sounds like a catch 22... May I inquire as to what foods you plan on peddling?

From the article, the food was pastries of some sort.

Oops... didn't see the link on my phone earlier. Thought it was the OP's own personal experience.
