I dont think I should have to ask, there's no way I'd be eating that. Teen DD thinks this is yet another stupid restriction on her freedoms. What can I say to stop her going out there to meet Mr Whippy?

I would say no too but I know some places do takeaway. I would still say no!

Mine is just selling lollies, drinks and sweets.

To mention they don't usually sell this - but they've started stocking up on essentials for those who can't get out of the house much

I don't trust our local ice cream van guys to wash their hands after a shit let alone handling cash etc.

She told me earlier that I must be lying about McDonalds closing as her friend had just been and got a meal.
