I work in the USA and I am a food safety instructor and a registered sanitarian. I do food inspections when the local health department gets overwhelmed. Let me tell you, as someone in the industry, the Federal, State, and Local food codes have rules in place that are actually set so far above any standard to make you sick. They do this as a safeguard. So if someone is getting sick at a restaurant, its REALLY bad.

Here in Western Canada we get Red Tide, AKA Paralytic Shellfish Poisoning and it's deadly. The paralysis starts in your mouth and hits your extremities/diaphragm within 12 hours. That's on top of the normal, lovely expected food poisoning symptoms. It's a horrible neurological disease with no antidote that would be totally avoidable if people would just follow the fisheries regulations.

[@steves1015]

Another Witty Username I’m also surprised there was no mention of chemical poisoning in the program since shellfish are notorious in their ability to concentrate heavy metals and organic pollutants. Worse still, with this form of pollution, there is no way to get rid of the contaminants by cooking or preparing.

[@cindytartt4048]

I’ve never heard of that. I feel bloody ignorant now. And I’ve eaten a lot in Canada in my teens but never fish…I’m sure it’s mostly great though. The restaurants we are at were tops (this was the 80s).

[@needmoreramsay]

Anytime I cook at home, I fill a sink with hot, soapy bleach water. Everything gets cleaned, rinsed before and after use. Counters, cooking surfaces cutting boards, all cleaned and wiped before using. I do this even if I'm cooking at a friend's house. Makes it so easy and fast to wash hands, cloths, knives, cutting boards and counters.

We had a restaurant inspector who took an 8th grade science class along on a few raids (he was a microbiologist). The first thing he did was check the bathroom...it was dirty, and he gave the place a grade of B. He said "it's easier to clean a bathroom than a kitchen, so I wager the kitchen will be awful." It was, and he lowered the grade to C. He pointed to the fridge and said "raw meat on the top shelf, cold cuts on the second shelf, you get contamination." Then you had the overflowing garbage can, the dirty tables, and the cook's head not covered.

Saddest part for me was at 22:34 where you can see on a sign "Don't speak a language other than English in front of customers" I mean that's just sad, even as an English-only speaking Australian. I'd never force that on my employees.

I see where you're coming from, but based on the fact it was on printed out paper it was policy for just the store. That tells me they've had problems in the past. Maybe customers thought staff were talking about them and complained? Either way I would think it's just etiquette. The same way I wouldn't expect my staff to yell or act unprofessional.

in my country they do inspections periodically, and if any customer is deceived. A huge fine will immediately fall, and the possible closure of the establishment. this also happens if the inspection detects lack of hygiene.
