@floyd_the_sane@Kenihana1@IrishKat00 -after being told to dispose of the food, they hid it in a truck and locked it so the inspector couldn’t throw it out. This is why they believed the vendor would still sell it. They were told the meat was at unsafe temps too long and improperly handled. They refused to trash it.
@floyd_the_sane@Kenihana1@IrishKat00 My mistake—it was to prevent them from pulling from the trash to use it. Not because they did it.
What they did do according to news
-ignore the food department for months
-ignore prior violations
-Use a trashcan filled with dirty water to clean their hands before handling food
@floyd_the_sane@Kenihana1@IrishKat00 The food has to be a danger to bleach it.
And it shows that they were given multiple warnings and inspections. They even pulled the contaminated food out of the trash to resell. You’re defending a business that wouldn’t care if you died as long as they get $5 from you.
@floyd_the_sane@Kenihana1@IrishKat00 Being “truly hungry” doesn’t disregard the natural animal/human instinct to smell your food first.
The bleach is to warn people who come near it that it’s bad.
Your “feelings” don’t matter in food and public safety.
@floyd_the_sane@Kenihana1@IrishKat00 This is common practice and has been for years. It’s what keeps the public safe. Just because you were ignorant to it before now, doesn’t make it bad. Everyone who’s ever worked in hospitality knew this happens already.
@floyd_the_sane@Kenihana1@IrishKat00 Bleach has a strong smell. No homeless person or animal is eating that. They’re homeless—not lacking common sense.
Even worse that food is not on ice or anything and just out in the open. Even without the inspector it would’ve gotten anyone sick.
If they’re missing food temps, out of temp, spoiled—then yes this is the correct response. Or else people get sick. Are y’all slow?!
Then in the comments saying give it to the homeless. To make them sick?! USE YOUR BRAIN
