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.

What does Florida violation V41 (Toilet facilities) mean?

HYGIENE INFRASTRUCTURE: Inadequate toilet facilities discourage proper restroom use and handwashing by employees. Lack of supplies (toilet paper, soap, towels) prevents proper hygiene. Non-functioning toilets force employees to delay bathroom breaks, increasing contamination risk. Self-closing doors prevent airborne contamination from reaching food areas. Provide adequate, clean toilet facilities: properly functioning toilets, toilet paper, self-closing doors, handwashing sink with hot/cold water, soap, paper towels. Maintain cleanliness throughout the day. Ensure facilities are accessible to employees at all times. Post handwashing signs. Facilities must comply with ADA requirements.
