    I want to mail food how would I do that?
    I'm starting my own goody shop well expanding it farther than my city. How do I go about mailing food, fruits, chocolates, etc and is there any dangers that I should look into about when starting?

    Consider the perish-ability of the products... and use a fast vs cheaper and slower means of shipping everything that is even remotely sensitive to heat or cold... as the longer in-transit... the greater the exposure to temperature extremes.

    Also consider dry ice is a no-no with most shippers as it posses an asphyxiation hazard in the confines of trucks, planes.. etc.

    Post office prohibits liquids of any type...
