That guy from the health department is a bit of a maroon... anyone eating off those food carts does so with the expectation that at some point their food will come with a side order of salmonella or e coli. We all know it's a risk you take by buying their food.

I have to agree the health dept guy is a moron, but that said, I'm sorry, if a resteraunt has to pass health dept rules so should these carts. Alot of the rules have nothing to do with health safety and more to do with imposing fines and giving people a false sense of security. Untill things change though, we have no choice but to deal with reality as it stands.
