Inspection summary
Prairie Whistle Food Co. has been inspected 11 times by Alberta Health Services (Environmental Public Health) since November 9, 2023. The most recent inspection, on September 2, 2026, found no infractions.
4 of 11 inspections on record found no infractions at all. In the past 12 months there were 6 inspections with 7 infractions recorded. All recorded findings relate to upkeep, equipment or paperwork rather than direct food-handling risks.
The number of infractions per inspection has stayed roughly the same over time.
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.
Building, plumbing and upkeepLower risk
Floors, walls and ceilings must be smooth and clean, with working lighting, ventilation, plumbing, hot and cold water, and washrooms. These are rarely an immediate food-safety risk on their own, but persistent problems can lead to pest or sanitation issues.
Recorded 10 times across 7 separate inspections, most recently on August 6, 2026. For example:
Is the facility properly constructed and maintained in a state of good repair to allow for the safe and sanitary handling of food?
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 November 9, 2023. For example:
Are properly operating hand washing sink(s) accessible to food handlers, located in suitable areas, and stocked with appropriate hand washing supplies?
