Overview

7-Eleven Store #41588A in Brooksville has been inspected once by FDACS on record, in May 2025, when inspectors documented 13 violations including multiple high-priority temperature control failures. Hot-held breaded chicken wings measured 102°F, buffalo wings 118°F, and tacos 122°F—all significantly below the required 135°F minimum. Ready-to-eat hot dogs and egg rolls in the refrigerator lacked required date marks. A retail open-air cooler was not cooling, and time/temperature controlled foods had been removed prior to the inspection. All affected food items were voluntarily discarded during the inspection, and missing date marks were corrected on site. Additional violations included missing employee health guidelines documentation, improper storage of toxic materials, pest control deficiencies, and an inaccessible handwashing sink in the back room—the latter cleared during the inspection. The facility had also been inspected in December 2022 while operating without a valid food permit, at which time 6 violations were cited including debris in the handwashing sink. A focused emergency response inspection was conducted in September 2023 during Hurricane Idalia with no violations documented.
