Overview

Cotton Country Cafe in Jay has experienced a severe compliance crisis over the past year. The facility recorded 15 violations across 6 inspections, with a dramatic deterioration beginning in August 2025. On August 5, 2025, an inspector documented 18 violations including three separate high-priority findings for improper hand and arm washing and three for contamination risk — conditions that create imminent health hazards. The same high-priority violations recurred in inspections on August 6, October 7, and November 13, 2025, indicating the facility failed to correct critical handwashing and contamination control deficiencies across multiple callback inspections. The most recent inspection on November 13, 2025 resulted in an administrative complaint recommendation, signaling formal disciplinary proceedings. The facility had been compliant as recently as February 2025 but deteriorated sharply within months, averaging 2.5 violations per inspection across the six-month crisis period — well above the statewide average of 5.2 — driven entirely by recurring employee health and food handling violations.
