The information below was compiled from reports of the health departments of Bartholomew and Johnson counties. Critical violations may expose customers to illnesses and typically must be corrected immediately or within days. Noncritical violations, if not corrected, could lead to critical violations or make critical violations more likely to occur. Noncritical violations typically do not have to be corrected until the next inspection.

An employee was observed changing his gloves without first washing his hands. Proper procedures are to remove the soiled gloves, wash hands, then put on new gloves. A 6-pound 11-ounce can of corn beef with severely dented seams was found on the can storage rack — food packages must be in good condition and protect the integrity of the contents so that food is not exposed to contaminants. Food products in the walk-in cooler were measured at between 42 and 46 degrees Fahrenheit. Potentially hazardous foods prepared and held refrigerated may be held for a maximum of seven days. Pork chops dated Oct. 25 were found in the walk-in cooler. Dishes may be sanitized immediately after being washed and rinsed. The three-compartment sink was set up to wash, sanitize and rinse instead of the proper method. Toxic item must be properly labeled. A working container of sanitizing agent was not properly labeled.
