Overview

Mobil Hobe Sound is a convenience store in Hobe Sound that operates a packaged ice program and underwent intensive compliance monitoring between June 2022 and July 2022 following ice machine violations. A stop-use order issued on June 21, 2022 required immediate removal of the bulk ice machine from service after ice test results were not completed within required timeframes. The establishment was required to provide satisfactory ice testing results within 30 days and underwent a check-back inspection on July 6, 2022 that documented 16 violations including adulterated food (white mold-like growth on green peppers in the walk-in cooler, voluntarily discarded during inspection), cold-holding temperature failures (rice, beans, and shredded cheese measured at 45–50°F in the walk-in cooler, corrected on site), no person in charge present during inspection, inadequate thermometer equipment, and improper sewage line connection to the three-compartment sink. The stop-use order remained in effect. A subsequent check-back inspection on February 22, 2024 confirmed that all previously cited compliance issues had been resolved. Since that remediation, the facility has maintained a clean record across four consecutive inspections (June 2024, November 2023, August 2025, and March 2026), all classified as routine offsite inspections with lab results provided and zero violations cited.
