Visit Grade: C — Weighs on Current
Critical Corrected ~8.0× illness risk = 90 pts × 0.5 (corrected) 08/21/26

Food for hot holding and service was held at a temperature of less than 135°F. [Corrected]

Safe Bite Analysis C. perfringens B. cereus S. aureus

Food held below 135°F allows dangerous bacteria to multiply and produce toxins that can't be destroyed by reheating. Clostridium perfringens alone causes nearly 1 million illnesses per year in the US.

Critical Corrected ~2.2× illness risk = 50 pts × 0.5 (corrected) 08/21/26

Food contact surfaces and utensils are not clean to sight and touch. (Beverage Spigot) [Corrected]

Safe Bite Analysis Norovirus Listeria Salmonella E. coli

Cutting boards, slicers, prep tables, and utensils that aren't clean become vehicles for spreading bacteria and viruses between food items. A dirty slicer used for deli meat is a classic Listeria transmission pathway.
