## Details

- Record Type: 483
- Company Name: Air Culinaire Worldwide, LLC
- Inspection Date: 2025-06-03
- Product Type: other
- Office Name: Los Angeles District Office
- Summary: During an inspection on June 3, 2025, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued a Form 483 to Air Culinaire Worldwide, LLC, identifying two significant observations. The first observation detailed a failure to maintain appropriate controls to minimize microbial growth and food contamination. Specifically, the walk-in refrigerator, storing various ingredients and finished products, was consistently operating above the required 41°F, with temperatures recorded as high as 45°F. Cooked and cooled rice was also found to be above the critical temperature limit. Additionally, condensate droplets were observed on the walk-in refrigerator's condenser unit, directly above exposed produce.
The second observation noted that the firm's equipment and utensils were not adequately designed or maintained to prevent contamination. Multiple cutting boardsela white board for raw meat, a green board for ready-to-eat produce, and a fixed board in the deli workstationexhibited excessive scoring and discoloration. This was highlighted as a repeat observation from a previous inspection in September 2020, indicating a persistent issue. These observations suggest that food at the facility may have been prepared or held under insanitary conditions, potentially rendering it injurious to health, as per the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act. Air Culinaire Worldwide is expected to address these deficiencies by implementing corrective actions.
