Question 4

What does Florida violation V08 (Proper hand/arm washing) mean?

Accepted Answer

TECHNIQUE FAILURE: Improper handwashing technique leaves pathogens on hands even when a handwashing attempt is made. Studies show 95% of people wash hands incorrectly — most don't scrub for 20 seconds or miss fingertips, thumbs, and between fingers. Incomplete washing creates a false sense of security while still transferring E. coli, Norovirus, and Salmonella to food. Correct technique requires: wet hands with clean warm water, apply soap, lather and scrub for 20+ seconds covering all surfaces including fingertips/nails/between fingers/back of hands, rinse thoroughly, dry with single-use towel. Use towel to turn off faucet. Do NOT use hand sanitizer as substitute for handwashing.

Question 5

What does Florida violation V09 (No contamination) mean?

Accepted Answer

ADULTERATION HAZARD: Food contaminated by chemicals (sanitizers, cleaners, pesticides), physical hazards (glass, metal, bandages), or biological agents (bacteria, viruses, parasites) can cause acute poisoning, choking, injury, or severe foodborne illness. Chemical contamination can cause burns to mouth/throat. Foreign objects cause choking, broken teeth, and lacerations. Protect food from ALL contamination sources. Store chemicals below and away from food. Use food-grade containers only. Inspect food upon receipt and before preparation. Maintain clean equipment and work surfaces. Cover food during storage. Separate raw from ready-to-eat. Remove contaminated food immediately — do not serve.

Question 6

What does Florida violation V13 (Parasite destruction) mean?

Accepted Answer

PARASITE SURVIVAL: Without proper freezing or cooking, parasites in fish (Anisakis, tapeworm), pork (Trichinella), and wild game survive to infect consumers. Anisakis larvae in raw sushi cause severe abdominal pain and allergic reactions. Tapeworm cysts in undercooked pork/beef grow into 15-30 foot worms in intestines. Proper freezing (-4°F for 7 days) kills parasites. Fish intended for raw consumption (sushi, sashimi, ceviche, tartare) must be frozen to -4°F for 7 days, or -31°F for 15 hours before service. Exception: tuna species and aquacultured fish fed processed feed. Pork and wild game must reach minimum internal cooking temperature. Document all freezing records.
