What these findings mean

Health authorities word their violations differently, so we group them by what they mean for food safety. Higher-risk findings are the ones inspectors treat as critical, because they can directly make someone sick.

  • Cleaning and sanitizingHigher risk

    Anything that touches food, such as cutting boards, dishes and utensils, must be washed, rinsed and sanitized. Inspectors check dishwasher temperatures, sanitizer strength and how wiping cloths are stored. Poor sanitizing lets bacteria survive from one use to the next.

    Recorded 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on June 25, 2025. For example: Does the operator use approved methods for cleaning and sanitizing equipment, utensils, and surfaces?

  • Food safety training and certificationLower risk

    Most jurisdictions require a certified food handler or manager on site, and some require allergen or food-worker training. These findings mean the paperwork or the trained person was missing at the time. They do not by themselves mean food was handled unsafely.

    Recorded once on June 25, 2025. For example: Are properly operating hand washing sink(s) accessible to food handlers, located in suitable areas, and stocked with appropriate hand washing supplies?

      • Lemon-scented bleach was observed on-site; however, scented bleach is not approved for sanitizing food contact surfaces. Only plain, unscented bleach may be used. To prepare an appropriate sanitizing solution, mix ½ teaspoon of unscented bleach per 1 litre of water.
    • 13. Are properly operating hand washing sink(s) accessible to food handlers, located in suitable areas, and stocked with appropriate hand washing supplies?
      • This mobile unit falls under a category that permits only low-risk activities such as dispensing beverages and using utensils for pre-portioned foods. In these cases, hand sanitizer and access to a handwashing sink (including a temporary setup) are acceptable.However, during the inspection, the operator was observed cutting licorice garnish, which constitutes food preparation and exceeds the scope of the approved permit. If food preparation is to occur, a fully operational handwashing sink must be available and in use. Please ensure operations align with the approved permit classification and that appropriate hand hygiene facilities are in place. If you wish to change your permit class to allow for food preparation, please let us know.
