Minnesota rules in brief

Commissary needed?
Minnesota's mobile food unit guide says "All food storage and preparation must occur in the MFU, STF, SPF, or in a licensed food establishment." It does not set a separate commissary visit rule; local health departments may.
How often
No statewide return frequency in the MDH guide; check your local licensing agency.

Confirm with your health department. This is our plain-English summary of MDH Mobile Food Unit construction guide (Jan. 2019). Rules change and inspectors apply them case by case.
