What does Florida violation V14 (Food contact surfaces) mean?

CROSS-CONTAMINATION: Improperly cleaned food contact surfaces are a primary vehicle for bacterial transfer. Cutting boards can harbor 200x more fecal bacteria than a toilet seat. Biofilms form on surfaces within 24 hours, protecting Listeria, Salmonella, and E. coli from routine cleaning. One contaminated surface can transfer pathogens to dozens of food items throughout the day. Clean and sanitize ALL food contact surfaces: after each use, between different food types (especially raw meat to ready-to-eat), every 4 hours during continuous use, and when contaminated. Use proper sanitizer concentration: chlorine 50-100 ppm, quaternary ammonium 200-400 ppm. Air dry — do not towel dry. Test sanitizer concentration every 2 hours.

What does Florida violation V22 (Consumer advisory) mean?

INFORMED CHOICE: Without consumer advisory, customers with compromised immune systems, elderly, pregnant women, and young children cannot make informed decisions about consuming raw or undercooked foods. Raw oysters carry Vibrio vulnificus (50% fatality in at-risk groups). Undercooked eggs carry Salmonella Enteritidis. Raw fish may contain Anisakis parasites. Provide written consumer advisory with: disclosure identifying menu items containing raw or undercooked animal foods (eggs, meat, fish, shellfish), and a reminder statement about increased risk of foodborne illness. Must be on menu, placard, or other conspicuous written format. Covers items like rare burgers, sushi, sunny-side-up eggs, raw oysters.
