Inspectors found white mold on green vegetables and other problems at a Broward market

State inspection of a Hollywood grocer turned up mold on vegetables, and water and washing violations that took kitchen utensils and areas of the store out of action.

King’s Market, 2626 N 22nd Ave., found itself with numerous Stop Sale and Stop Use Orders from Florida Department of Agriculture Inspector Francis Odio.

Ag Department records say King’s Market is owned by Inaaya, LLC, which the Division of Corporations says is run by Nitai Saha.

Here’s some of what Odio found:

▪ Neither the backroom employee restroom nor the handwash sink near the three-compartment sink had hot water. The inspection says King’s has 30 days to correct that in the employee restroom.

▪ Water leaked from the left and right knobs of the handwash sink and the three-compartment sink’s pipes, cold water in both cases. King’s also came up short on drain plugs “available to wash, rinse, and sanitize” at the three-compartment sink.

Stop Use Orders came down on all food kitchen utensils and the entire food processing area.
