MARSHALL COUNTY, AL (WAFF) -
Paleteria La Michoacana in Albertville scored a 60 with the Marshall County Health Department. The restaurant narrowly averted an immediate closing. A mandatory shutdown happens when a food establishment scores 59 or below.
The health inspector reported finding a piece of cardboard in food. The inspector also reported finding insecticide stored on a shelf next to food, corn and cheese sauce held below the required hot-holding temperature to prevent bacterial growth, and employee drinks scattered throughout the food preparation areas.
The inspector said Paleteria La Michoacana fixed the problems. They will be reinspected within 30 days of the inspection, which is mandatory for any restaurant which scores 69 or lower.
The same reinspection timetable is in place for El Sol King Pollo in Albertville after the restaurant scored a 69.

The inspector also reported a dirty ice maker, that there were no expiration dates marked for several food items in a cooler, and that there was no working hand sink in the bar area.
