Story:
NYC (11/18/2010) - Have you ever eaten at the mall? The Today Show did a 3 month investigation into the restaurants in the mall food court and found a lot of problems that could be dangerous for our health. They investigated 3 malls in 3 different states. One of the malls was South Street Seaport which is in downtown Manhattan.
The investigation found that all the malls had serious violations of the health code. In the South Street Seaport 83% of the restaurants in the mall had serious violations. The first violation was keeping food at the wrong temperature, like leaving raw food out of the fridge. This could cause bacteria to grow on the food and make people sick. The second violation was vermin like roaches and mice. These animals cannot be around food safely because they spread germs like salmonella. The third violation was employees not washing their hands before they touch the food.
