Overview

Pit Stop 36, a convenience store in Lake City, holds a permit for packaged ice sales. On July 30, 2026, the facility met sanitation inspection requirements but received citations for ten violations including failure to obtain required microbial analysis of bagged ice, missing allergen labeling on self-service cheese burgers, fajitas, and BBQ sandwiches (which were removed from sale), incomplete ingredient and nutritional labeling on packaged items, an employee in the pizza area without a hair restraint, missing backflow prevention devices on outdoor spigots and mop sink hose bibs, damaged ceiling in the back room, excessive dirt accumulation behind the soda machine, a food-contact can opener with buildup, mold in the ice chute of a soda machine, and missing handwashing signage in the men's restroom. Most violations were corrected during the inspection.

On August 31, 2026, a focused inspection for ice testing resulted in a check-back failure. The facility did not provide required ice microbial analysis after the 30-day correction period. Stop Sale and Stop Use orders were issued for bagged ice due to violation of Florida Food Law regarding microbial analysis requirements. The facility must contact the Business Center at (850) 245-5520 or visit foodpermit.fdacs.gov to request a written release of product once corrections and required documentation are obtained. The most recent inspection outcome is a focused inspection with check-back needed and active stop orders in place.
