The inspector found mice, rats, cockroaches, flies, or evidence of them (like droppings) inside the business, or conditions that could attract them. Pests can spread bacteria to food and surfaces, so this is treated as one of the more serious findings.

Proper hot and cold holding temperatures
Inspector’s notes
FOUND THE COOKED CORN AT 129F STORED IN THE HOT HOLDING UNIT. [CA] KEEP HOT POTENTIALLY HAZARDOUS FOOD AT 135F OR ABOVE. REHEAT TO 165F AND HOT HOLD AT 135F OR ABOVE. NOTE; THE FOOD HAS BEEN IN THE HOT HOLDING FOOD FOR LESS THAN 4 HRS, PER OPERATOR.
In plain English
Food was not kept cold enough, hot enough, cooled fast enough, or cooked or reheated to the right temperature. Bacteria grow quickly in the "danger zone" between 41°F and 135°F, which makes this one of the most important food-safety checks.

In plain English
Dishes, equipment, or surfaces that touch food were not properly washed, rinsed, and sanitized, or sanitizer was not at the right strength. Clean surfaces help stop germs from spreading to food.

In plain English
