Overview

7-Eleven #23403A in Lutz experienced a November 2025 inspection that identified 10 violations, including critical temperature control failures and repeat chemical labeling deficiencies. Hot-held egg rolls, chicken skewers, and tacos were measured at 123°F to 129°F — below the required 135°F minimum — and were rapidly reheated to 165°F for 15 seconds or discarded during the inspection. An unlabeled spray bottle of unknown chemical was voluntarily discarded, and a second unlabeled squeeze bottle of blue chemical in the warewashing area was labeled on site. Digital probe thermometers were inoperable due to dead batteries and were replaced during the inspection. Handwashing sinks lacked soap in both the food service and warewashing areas, and soap was provided before the inspector departed. All violations were corrected on site. The two prior focused inspections in 2023 — one related to Hurricane Idalia assessment and one for routine sample collection — resulted in no violations.
