Code Description
209 Repeat Food not protected from contamination [s. 12(a)]
Observation: Foods stored in walk-in freezer were stored on the ground. Some foods (i.e., raw meat) stored above 15 cm (6 inches) were not covered and stored above prepared food. Additionally, some foods in the walk-in freezer were not stored in foodgrade containers. Some foods were also not covered and not stored in foodgrade containers inside the walk-in refrigerator. Public health significance: Food stored below 15 cm and in non-foodgrade containers is prone to biological, physical, and chemical contamination. Uncovered food may also lead to contamination from the environment or lead to cross-contamination of other stored foods. Consumption of contaminated food may lead to foodborne illnesses.
Corrective Action: Store all foods in the walk-in freezer and walk-in refrigerator at least 15 cm above ground, inside foodgrade containers if applicable, and have them kept covered.
301Critical Equipment/utensils/food contact surfaces not maintained in sanitary condition [s. 17(1)]
Observation: Ventilation hood was noticeably stained with grease. Equipment (e.g., meat clever) used for processing raw meats were left unattended and soiled on food contact surfaces. Public health significance: Cross-contamination of food from equipment increase the risk of foodborne illnesses.
Corrective Action: Clean ventilation hood from grease and smoke stains. All equipment should be cleaned, sanitized, and dried after each use.
306 Repeat Food premises not maintained in a sanitary condition [s. 17(1)]
Observation: Non-food contact surfaces in the dry storage area were visibly filthy. Mice feces were found behind corners of shelves between the walls. Public health significance: Unsanitary conditions attract pests by providing source of food and harbourage for them. Dry food stored under unsanitary conditions may be contaminated by pests and increase the spread of harmful microorganisms that they carry. Consumption of these contaminated food may lead to serious foodborne diseases.
Corrective Action: Remove mice droppings using personal protective equipment and dispose carefully; clean and sanitize effected areas. Clean debris and food from floors, shelves, and all non-food contact surfaces in the dry storage/receiving area.
