  6. Monitoring Inspection

    3 infractions

    • 08. Do food handlers ensure that food is protected from contamination (unless noted elsewhere)(Non-Critical)?
      • An open bag of cornstarch was being stored in a bin without a lid. While the bag's opening was folded to reduce the likelihood of contamination, the operator was educated on the importance to store all bulk foods in a container with a lid to better protect the food from contamination. The operator placed the cornstarch in a different container with a lid to properly protect the food.
    • 08. Do food handlers ensure that food is protected from contamination (unless noted elsewhere)(Non-Critical)?
      • A bulk bin of rice was overfilled to the extent that the lid could not form a proper seal on the bin. The operator removed the excess amount of rice to a separate sealable container so that the lid could form a proper seal on the bin and therefore protect the food from contamination.
    • 10. Are food temperatures during storage and processing being controlled to maximize food safety?
      • No thermometer was present inside the front display fridge which contained perishable food and dairy products. A thermometer inside a fridge containing perishable food is important as it allows the operator to measure temperatures near high-risk items and ensure all areas of the fridge are being kept at safe temperatures. An independent thermometer needs to be used in addition to the built-in digital thermometer that some fridges possess as these built-in devices may not give an accurate representation of the temperature throughout the fridge.
