Three Tate County businesses received perfect “A” scores following inspections by the Mississippi Department of Health in April.
Pizza Hut and Subway on Norfleet Drive in Senatobia received top marks as did Coldwater Food and Fuel on West Service Road.
Restaurants and other food facilities are required to display their results with a letter grade to clearly communicate the most recent health department inspection.
A, B or C rating reflects whether critical violations were found and corrected. This grading system appears in all restaurants, as well as food facilities such as school cafeterias, day care centers, and cafes and bars where food is sold.
“A” grade means the facility inspection found no critical violations. Critical violations of the state Food Code are those more likely to lead to food contamination, illness, or other health risk. “B” grade means critical violations were found but corrected under the supervision of the inspecting environmentalist. No further corrective actions are required.
