Overview

Jiffy Food Market in Riviera Beach received an initial sanitation inspection on November 26, 2024 after an official request. A stop-sale order issued that day required the immediate removal of boiled peanuts being held at 80°F on the self-serve counter — well below the required 135°F minimum for hot-held foods. The peanuts were voluntarily destroyed by establishment management and witnessed by the inspector. A stop-use order was also issued for a deli slicer in the kitchen with dried food particle buildup on food-contact surfaces. The slicer was cleaned, rinsed, and sanitized during the inspection and released. The inspection documented 20 violations overall, including priority findings: glass cleaner stored directly above grits in the backroom (corrected on site), and deficiencies in food protection manager certification and employee health knowledge. The person in charge was unable to correctly answer questions related to foodborne illness prevention and symptoms, and an employee health guide was provided. The facility is operating without a valid food permit.
