HAZARD RATING FOR YOUR FACILITY: Low (≤15) Total Score = 0
Critical Hazards: Total Number: 1
302 - Equipment/utensils/food contact surfaces not properly washed and sanitized [s. 17(2)]
Observation (CORRECTED DURING INSPECTION): Rice pots observed not sanitized for minimum contact time of 1 minute as per manufacturer's directions on QUATs sanitizer dispenser.
Corrective action: Staff soaked the pot for longer than the minimum required contact time of 1 minute. Ensure all rice and quinoa pots are covered evenly in the QUATs solution for at least the minimum contact time on manufacturer's label. Adequate contact time is required for sanitizers to provide enough sanitization of the surface in a manner that reduces potential biological contaminants by 99, 999% (disease causing pathogens destroyed/deactivated).
Corrective Action(s):

Non-Critical Hazards: Total Number: 1
209 - Food not protected from contamination [s. 12(a)]
Observation: Ice machine observed with pink mildew and some debris along the back of the interior.
Corrective action: Staff turned off the machine and stopped using ice in the drinks and for the rice scoop. Clean and sanitize the machine before using it to make ice. Ensure the ice machine is routinely cleaned and sanitized to lower the risk that ice may be contaminated, which when ingested could cause illness as some types of molds/biofilous may harbour pathogens.
