Mother Nature's Pantry in Palm Beach Gardens
Last inspected:
4513 Pga Blvd, Palm Beach Gardens, FL 33418Mother Nature's Pantry in Palm Beach Gardens has been under enforcement since October 2024, when FDACS issued stop-sale and stop-use orders following a sanitation inspection that documented 24 violations. A stop-sale order required the voluntary destruction of sliced cheese with blue mold-like substances and deli turkey with deli meats that measured 51–53°F (well above the required 41°F maximum for cold-held foods). A second stop-sale order addressed adulterated cheese found in the sandwich prep cooler. A stop-use order was issued for unsanitary equipment. Raw shell eggs were discovered stored directly above ready-to-eat mayonnaise and pickles in the same cooler, and the inspector documented that a certified food protection manager certificate was not available and the person in charge could not correctly respond to food safety questions. A September 2024 stop-use order for unsanitary equipment remained unresolved as of June 2025, with the facility conducting multiple check-back inspections but not obtaining written release. The most recent inspection on September 16, 2025 issued a check-back release for the stop-use order, indicating partial resolution of the enforcement action.
