Overview

Walmart Supercenter 3397 provides vended water in Miami Gardens. Two stop-sale orders issued September 16, 2025 required the voluntary destruction of time/temperature control foods held at improper cold (below 41°F) and hot (below 135°F) temperatures under FS 500.04 and FS 500.10. An inspection on September 16, 2025 documented 10 violations including priority-level findings: hot-held deli items (breaded chicken wings, plantains, fricassee de pollo, yuca) measured between 119–123°F when the minimum required temperature is 135°F; cold-held produce (Green Trio green leaves) measured at 52°F when the maximum allowed temperature is 41°F; a food employee hand-washed for less than 5 seconds instead of the required 20 seconds; and food-contact knives stored with old food debris. All violations were corrected on site during the inspection, and affected food items were voluntarily discarded. A follow-up inspection on October 31, 2025 documented 1 violation—the facility lacks written employee procedures for cleanup of vomit and diarrhea events—which was corrected during the visit. The most recent focused inspection on February 17, 2026 resulted in no violations.
