Both products were voluntarily destroyed and witnessed by the inspector. The May 6, 2025 sanitation inspection documented 17 violations including multiple priority findings: a container of discolored pickles in the cooler, hot-held chicken tenders and potato wedges measured at 95–128°F (minimum required 135°F), half and half creamer at 43°F (maximum allowed 41°F), and undated ready-to-eat creamer. All violations were corrected on site. A priority violation for improper raw animal food separation — raw chicken stored directly over raw pork in a reach-in cooler — was cited during a focused inspection on October 30, 2023 and corrected during the visit. The facility's person in charge was noted on May 6 to lack a certified food protection manager certificate and demonstrated insufficient knowledge of food safety requirements.
