Hooters of Wilmington.

5112 Market St.
Wilmington, N.C.
Grade=73.5
The New Hanover County health inspector's report uncovers 18 violations, including finding some ifo's...identified flying objects. Not bar flies, but rather beer flies buzzing around a keg wall tap. Not the kind of wings Hooter's is famous for. But there's more in this version of 'A Bug's Life.' German Cockroaches were found on the cook line. The inspector also claims employees need to wash their hands after sneezing, coughing and handling raw chicken. In all, a 73.5 for hooters. A couple of more violations and the health department could've shut them down.
Cockroaches spread many diseases. They carry a large range of bacteria, viruses, and worms that are dangerous to people and pets. They are unsightly, and they often do major damage to electrical appliances. Their droppings contaminate food, cause allergies, and are thought to trigger asthma attacks. They can feed on a finger print left on a glass, or the spittle left on a phone. They will eat nearly anything; soap, hair, skin, your precious wine labels, their own droppings, and each other. They feed by vomiting up pre-digestive juices onto their food to soften it first, then they... well, do you really want to know? (Imagine a thick shake... yuk!). When people get food poisoning from salmonella bacteria, it is often the dirty rotten cockroach that delivered the germs. Cockroaches truly are disgusting!
