The operator provided metal probe thermometers, quat. test strips and an Employee Health policy (FDA Form 1B) during today's inspection.
- Outer Openings - Protected
Observation: Outer opening of the food establishment is not protected against entry of insects and rodents ( spacing was observed around the rear exit door).
Correction: Protect the food establishment against the entry of insects and rodents by 1. Filling or closing holes and other gaps along floors, walls, and ceilings, 2. Closed, tight fitting windows, and 3. Solid, self-closing, tight-fitting doors. Insects and rodents are vectors of disease-causing microorganisms which may be transmitted to humans by contamination of food and food-contact surfaces.

Items are date marked on the calendar on the wall.
- Critical: Food - Packaged and Unpackaged - Separation, Packaging, and Segregation* (corrected on site)
Observation: Raw hamburger patties were observed being stored above several heads of lettuce.
Correction: Separate raw foods of animal origin during storage, preparation, holding, and display from raw RTE food including foods such as fish for sushi or molluscan shellfish, or other raw RTE food such as vegetables, and cooked RTE food.
- Critical: Food - Potentially Hazardous Food - Cold Holding* (corrected on site)
Observation: Cheese slices and sliced ham cold holding at improper temperatures. Do not store any TCS foods in the top of the make table until deeper pans are purchased. Once deeper pans are purchased, check the temperature on the product to ensure this has fixed the issue. If deep pans do not keep the food below 41 degrees F, store product in the bottom of the cooler.
Correction: Cold hold potentially hazardous food at 41°F or below to inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria.

Discussed FDA form 1-B with operator
Remove spoons for coffee from counter to avoid them from being used by several customers.
Store cheese and tomatoes in the bottom of the cooler.
Date mark ready-to-eat foods within 24 hours.
According to the manufacturers recommendations on the steramine tablets, dishes must stay in sanitizer for at least one minute.
- Critical: Date Marking - Ready-to-Eat - Potentially Hazardous Food - Date Marking*
Observation: The ready-to-eat (RTE) commercially processed deli meat, bbq, and hot dogs in the refrigeration unit was not properly dated for disposition after opening.
Correction: Mark a "consume by" date on commercially processed RTE foods at the time the original container is opened. If the food is held at 41°F or below the food shall be served or sold within 7 calendar days. Some harmful bacteria continue to grow even at refrigeration temperatures so limiting the amount of time in storage limits the amount of growth allowed for these bacteria.
