Separate raw animal foods from ready-to-eat foods.
Inspector’s notes
Some of the raw meats were being stored above ready to eat (vegetables) food. Be sure all raw food is stored below food that may not be cooked to prevent cross contamination from possible dripping of raw meat juices of foods that may not be cooked.
In plain English
Food was stored or handled in a way that could let germs or other material get into it, such as raw meat stored above ready-to-eat food or uncovered food. Cross-contamination is a common cause of foodborne illness.
