Overview

Winn Dixie #0705 in Haines City has 6 inspections on record from April 2023 through March 2026, with zero violations sustained across this period. A stop-sale order issued December 3, 2024 required the immediate removal of time/temperature control for safety food (raw proteins) stored above the proper cold-holding temperature of 41°F. The affected products were voluntarily destroyed by store management and witnessed by the inspector. During a December 2024 sanitation inspection, four violations were identified: raw chorizo stored above ready-to-eat cheese, raw salmon held at 43–46°F in a retail reach-in cooler (exceeding the 41°F maximum), deli meats and cheeses ranging from 45–53°F in a cheese island cooler, and a band saw with white buildup in the wheel guard cavity. All violations were corrected on site during the inspection, including relocation of raw salmon to the freezer and verification at 41°F or below, removal and discard of the temperature-abused sprouts and cream cheese, and cleaning and sanitizing of the band saw. A similar cold-holding temperature violation had been documented in April 2023 affecting sprouts and cream cheese packages; those products were also voluntarily discarded during that inspection. Since December 2024, the facility has completed four focused inspections for sample collection and training purposes with zero violations cited.
