Operative words

The Department has issued a variety of regulatory relief measures that require service of a meal. (See, Notices of Relief, items 5 and 16; June 10, 2020, Industry Advisory...)... Business and Professions Code section 23038 provides that, "'Meals' means the usual assortment of foods commonly ordered at various hours of the day; the service of such food and victuals only as sandwiches or salads shall not be deemed a compliance with this requirement."
