Ramen, Tacos, and Corn Dogs Under Fire | Lubbock News
Description
Yanagi Ramen in Lubbock nearly shut down after a health inspection uncovered shocking violations—molded food, expired ingredients by months, improperly cooled rice, and toxic items stored above food. Management lacked oversight, certifications were missing, and even employee drinks sat atop food. Other local spots like Cesiah’s and Poliberto’s faced similar issues: spoiled produce, expired meats, and unsafe storage. Even Wienerschnitzel slipped up with warm corn dogs, dirty utensils, and poor handwashing. While many fixes were made on the spot, these cases expose a troubling pattern: food safety is being ignored. Thankfully, Yanagi Ramen reopened—but the message is clear: great food can’t come at the cost of safety.
