Good news for restaurants and salad lovers. The Center for Disease and Control now says that romaine lettuce should be safe to eat again stating that lettuce sold in stores is not from Yuma, Arizona where the E. Coli outbreak was said to originate.
The Chattanooga-Hamilton County Health Department inspects restaurants twice a year and grades the businesses on a 100-point scale. Scores below 70 require corrective action. Restaurants are reinspected if they fail to meet critical standards. To file a health-related complaint, call the Department of Environmental Health at 209-8110. The scores are original and do not reflect on-the-spot changes, which sometimes lead to upward adjustments.
No failures reported for the week ending May 20, 2018:
