General Remarks
This inspection was conducted at The Grange Fair.
After the administrative meeting conducted last week, the methods discussed with the owner were still not being followed thoroughly.
Several containers of pickles were not provided with adequate ice to keep product at the required 41F.
Large coolers for backup pickles are also not being provided with adequate ice either.
Discussed with employees the importance of ice and filling all containers fully with ice to keep product cold.
Temperature/time logs were not on site, but employees did have thermometers to verify temperatures.
More ice was obtained and containers filled.
Will verify daily while set up at this fair, regulatory fees may be assessed.
This compliance inspection is subject to a regulatory service fee.
