Rodent droppings in soda syrup. Beaufort Co.'s worst October food inspections

The South Carolina Department of Agriculture (SCDA) has released its October food inspection reports. Two restaurants, two schools and a Parker’s scored less than A. Inspectors from the SCDA inspect restaurants and other food-serving establishments across the state on a routine basis. The frequency of inspections is based on the establishment’s risk-factor for food-borne illness and its compliance history, according to the SCDA. Grades are awarded on a 100-point scale, with A grades above 87 points, B 78 points, and C less than 78 points. Repeat infractions can result in lower letter grades no matter the points. Here’s why these Beaufort County establishments received their grades, and if their violations were corrected: E-Tang Asian Bistro Inspectors awarded E-Tang Asian Bistro, located at 811 William Hilton Parkway on Hilton Head Island, a C grade with 75 points in its Oct.15 routine inspection. Inspectors observed: An employee drinking from an open cup and eating from a bowl on the hot line Employees failing to wash hands between cleaning and food preparation, an employee washing hands without soap, and an employee washing hands in a food preparation sink “Fresh rodent droppings in a pool of Lemon-Lime Soda Syrup,” as well as rodent droppings

Georgia's Former Army Base Is Now A National Monument With Civil War Relics And Historic Trails

The U.S. state of Georgia may be best known for its bustling capital city, Atlanta, but the Peach State is also rich in history, being home to hundreds of Civil War battle sites. On Cockspur Island just outside Savannah, often called the friendliest U.S. city by tourists, sits a 19th-century fort known as Fort Pulaski. Once the site of a major siege during the Civil War, today the fort is a registered National Monument with historical relics and seaside trails open to the public. Visitors can explore the fort grounds inside and out via Ranger tours or self-guided discovery, learn something new at the Visitor Center, and walk and bike along scenic hiking paths.
