Why This Matters
Missing handwashing supplies forces employees to skip handwashing. Studies show only 31% of workers wash hands properly when supplies are inadequate. Spreads norovirus to hundreds.
What Was Observed
Observed a lack of soap at the handwash sink in the kitchen. Provide soap and towels to all handwash sinks at all times. The operator immediately provided soap.

Why This Matters
Raw chicken drips contaminate everything below with Salmonella and Campylobacter. Cross-contamination causes massive outbreaks affecting hundreds.

MINOR
FOOD STORAGE; FOOD STORAGE CONTAINERS IDENTIFIED
Why This Matters
Improper storage allows pest access and temperature abuse. Food on floor contacts contaminated water during cleaning. Expired foods cause illness.

Observed a bin of flour on the floor. Store all foods at least 6" above the floor. The operator immediately moved the flour.

PROPER HOT AND COLD HOLDING TEMPERATURES
Why This Matters
Temperature abuse causes 63% of foodborne outbreaks. Clostridium perfringens multiplies rapidly between 70-120°F. Listeria grows even at refrigeration temperatures.
What Was Observed
Measured chicken at 44F on the top portion of the large, sandwich food preparation cooler. The chicken had been there less than one hour. The operator moved the chicken to the bottom of the cooler where foods held at 41F and below. Measured Canadian bacon at 55F on the top portion of the smaller, pizza preparation cooler. The operator stated the Canadian bacon had been there for roughly 2-3 hours. The Canadian bacon was moved to the bottom of the cooler to bring it to 41F.
