Applebee's

[deuce91]

Read on the front page of the Globe and saw that Applebee's has been fined by the KDHE for food safety violations.


A KDHE inspector visited the restaurant on April 3 and 16 and documented a series of violations, according to a copy of the administrative order announcing the fine. Those violations included:

% Failing to demonstrate knowledge of foodborne disease prevention, apply principles designed to prevent potential hazards or meet the requirements of the food code.

% An employee failed to wash his or her hands after handling soiled equipment and utensils.

% Having adulterated food on the premises.

% An employee had bare-hand contact with ready-to-eat food.

% Failing to keep cold food cold.

% Failing to clean equipment and utensil surfaces that came into contact with food to the sight and touch.

% Failing to clean food-contact equipment surfaces before use.

-From the Daily Globe, June 2nd, 2007.

My question after reading this is "What the hell is adulterated food?!?!"

Perchance it's food that really belongs in the trash. (?)

It means it’s contaminated.

US CODE: Title 21,342. Adulterated food

There is a website that you can go on and see all of the places in Dodge and their latest inspection. I can't remember the site but some of our eateries have had major violations.
