FOOD CONTACT SURFACES: CLEAN AND SANITIZED (CORRECTED ON SITE)
Why This Matters
Dirty cutting boards and utensils cause 76% of cross-contamination. Biofilms protect bacteria from cleaning. One contaminated surface spreads pathogens to dozens of foods.
What Was Observed
Ware washing machine dispensing low level of chlorine sanitizer, ammonia sanitizer dispenser dispensing inadequate level of ammonia for sanitizer bucket. Corrected on site by setting up sanitizer bucket directly from dispenser reservoir. Please train staff on use of test strips, checking sanitizer level in bucket, changing sanitizer bucekts every 4 hours or as needed. 114117, 114125(b), 114141
