Man arrested for selling contaminated bread as gluten free

I read about this fellow who thought it was a good idea to sell regular bread for a higher price as gluten free bread in North Carolina a while ago but it looks as if the law has caught up with him. Apparently he got the fresh artisan breads from a distributor and then put them into packaging labeled gluten free to sell them at the local fair market. Well, guess what happened? People got sick and investigated what was going on and when they found out, well I imagine they weren't too happy with this gentleman, after all there are rules about these things.

"The North Carolina Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services began investigating Paul Seelig after complaints flooded in regarding his breads that were sold at the North Carolina State Fair." reports the latest article on celiac.com.

A good read, but I like the message it sends overall.
