lvcruiser Posted August 18, 2004 #28 Share Posted August 18, 2004 You guys are just begging to have this thread pulled, aren't you? Is it impossible for you to have an intelligent discussion without the name calling and sarcasm? This is quickly falling into the same category as children on ships, dressing at dinner and Johnny Rockets, and for absolutely no good reason. There are many ways to make your point without getting crass. Take off the flame throwers and play nice before someone reports this thread. I don't want to lose this thread because it has merit, or did before gloves came off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firefighterhoop Posted September 14, 2004 #29 Share Posted September 14, 2004 If it were posted, Look at some of the scores of your local chain resteraunts (Fast food and sit down) and other normal restaraunts posted by county health inspectors! I know some of the chain places are way more unsanitary than what is above, based on previous conversations with our local health inspector!

Forget local restaurants, I shudder to think what our kitchen at home would score. PS I voted No in the poll, but only because there wasn't one for 'Do they matter as long as they're 90's and higher'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
breal6 Posted September 15, 2004 #31 Share Posted September 15, 2004 let's jump to reality. inspections are one thing and the inspectors are there to do a job , but the reality is that the cruise lines at each and every meal do something that not only jeopardizes your health but blatantly promotes the spread of disease. after your main course they collect any unused silver and return it to the silver trays to be reused at the next meal. how does this jeopardize you? well i saw a gentleman use his coffee spoon to taste his wifes veggies. put it to his mouth to clean it off, replace it to the original position across the top of his place setting. the waiter came along collected the silver and off the spoon went to be placed with the unused silver.

abridalmaven Posted September 17, 2004 #32 Share Posted September 17, 2004 I would say those that are upset by thsi report had better not eat out anywhere EVER, but then again I KNOW homes are just as bad or worse. I have DIL with OCD and is ultra germ phobic, but I have seen mold and even dust,:eek: in her house at times also. And I can almost guarantee the most expensive restaurant in the world also can have a few slip ups now and then. Anyone who is that germ phobic needs to live in a bubble. And yes this thread should be pulled as it is too riduculous for words!:rolleyes: :p ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DannyS Posted September 17, 2004 #33 Share Posted September 17, 2004 Compare what the OP posted to the most recent CDC failing score - Carnival Pride: http://www2.cdc.gov/nceh/vsp/VSP_InspRpt1.asp?txtShip=CARNIVAL+PRIDE&txtDate=8%2F15%2F2004&show_part=dtl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CGTNORMANDIE Posted September 20, 2004 #34 Share Posted September 20, 2004 I come from a food background...more than 40 years experience. I can tell you that, with the exception of the ox tails under the condenser, the reports were pretty common stuff. The kitchen crews are changing constantly...crew members leave every week for their time onshore. When this happens you need to train the new crew member who takes his/her place...In the "fury and the fire" that is the kitchen/galley, this does not always happen...many times it takes a CDC inspection to "kick butt" and get the crew on the same page. I have seen many of the galleys onboard and I can tell you that they are a lot cleaner than most privately owned restaurants. Health inspections onshore are infrequent compared to the CDC inspections onboard ships. The ships have to be ever-vigilent and, for the most ppart, they are.

Firefighterhoop Posted November 14, 2004 #35 Share Posted November 14, 2004 I wonder how a local fast food/slow food resteraunt would compare.... I think prob a lot worse as the county health inspectors come and go quite fast! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
