Last inspected:

1808 Lake Worth Rd, Lake Worth, FL 33461
Overview

Cij Enterprises Inc, a convenience store in Lake Worth, received a focused inspection on October 24, 2024 in response to Hurricane Milton follow-up with no violations cited. The facility's previous inspection on September 21, 2023 documented 17 violations, including multiple priority-level findings. Raw shell eggs were stored directly over milk and drinks in the walk-in cooler display, a cross-contamination hazard that was corrected on site by relocating eggs to the bottom shelf. Poisonous or toxic materials—sun block lotion, hand wash soap, and disinfectant spray bottles—were displayed directly above single-serve plastic cups, foam food containers, and aluminum trays, creating a contamination risk; these chemicals were removed by the person in charge during the inspection. Additional violations included the person in charge's inability to correctly answer questions about food-borne disease prevention, restrictions, and exclusions; the lack of written procedures for cleaning up vomiting and diarrheal incidents; and the absence of a metal stem probe thermometer on premises for food temperature verification.
