Purpose of this visit was to evaluate capacity of facility to maintain food at proper temperature and minimize risk of cross contamination of all operators using the facility.
Critical: Milk - Fluid Milk and Milk Products* Observation: Observed containers of milk in walk in cooler with no label. I was told by the Person in Charge at the time of the visit that a cooperturive was droppoing off this to be picked up by another individual from. All food in stored in the facility is to be from an approved source including milk or milk products that are pasteurized and identified by label including listing that the milk is Grade A, name of processing plant, registration numberand address. It appears this milk is being received from an unapproved source--a farm which is not approved by Va. Dept. of Agriculture.
Correction: Obtain fluid milk and products from sources that comply with Grade A standards as specified and identified in law as stated above.
Food Storage - Clean and Dry Location Observation: Containers of raw egg batter and other food stored on the floor or food stored less than 6" above the floor in walk in cooler. It appears this unit is overstocked..;Elevate food storage onto approved shelving with minimum 6" legs or casters. Operator had stated during the last visit that only this retail operator and one mobile unit along with a raw juice processor who is bottling for only retail sale. This facility use is beginning to exceed refrigeration capacity in this unit. Operator had stated before that the juice processor will move out in 6 weeks freeing up space for the donut operator.
