Overview

Super America Newberry Inc, a convenience store in Gainesville, received two stop-sale orders on January 22, 2026 for violations of Florida's Food Code. A stop-sale order required the immediate removal of time/temperature control for safety food after the facility failed to maintain proper hot holding temperatures — an inspector measured potato wedges at 128°F in the deli counter hot case, below the required 135°F minimum. A second stop-sale order addressed misbranding violations. Both products were voluntarily destroyed by facility management and witnessed by inspector. The same inspection documented 12 violations including raw shell eggs stored directly above ready-to-eat pickles in the walk-in cooler, a lack of written procedures for responding to vomitus or diarrhea discharge events, and an air gap violation at the warewashing sink. Several violations were corrected on-site during the inspection. The facility was operating without a valid food permit at the time of inspection and was directed to complete the permit application process to continue operations.
