Greenish meat, larvae on the food, bad smells: a French butcher’s shop had to close immediately after an inspection report revealed serious violations of hygiene regulations that curb appetite.
For example, the Boucherie du Marché SAS in Longjumeau, south of Paris, France, posed “serious and imminent threats to public health,” according to the report of a health inspection conducted in May and reported Monday by the Essonne Republican.
Therefore, according to local media, the report mentioned “unsanitary premises with nauseating odors and flies throughout the establishment,” as well as the “storage of spoiled meat of a greenish color that emits a bad odor and the presence of maggots. Food stored on the floor.” .
In addition, no identification would have been noted, while pieces of food burned by the cold would have been reported.
Not surprisingly, the facility was ordered to close, with a fine of 30,000 euros – the equivalent of more than 43,000 Canadian dollars – and a two-year prison sentence for contempt of conduct.
