SAN ANTONIO \u2013 Metro Health ordered the reinspection of a Northeast side grocery store after finding infractions like bugs in containers and lukewarm day-old menudo, according to inspection records. <\/p>\n

Behind the Kitchen Door<\/a> is an ongoing series where KSAT investigates health inspections of restaurants in San Antonio.<\/p>\n

Culebra Super Meat Market #16<\/p>\n

The grocery store, located at 14100 Nacogdoches, received a score of 72 during a Metro Health inspection on Sept. 24<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The 15 violations found inside led the agency to order a re-inspection. <\/p>\n

KSAT visited the grocery store and spoke with a manager about the violations. <\/p>\n

The report states that a meal moth and small insects were found in different containers in the bakery area. <\/p>\n

\u201cHow do you explain that to customers?\u201d asked KSAT reporter Daniela Ibarra. <\/p>\n

\u201cUh, I\u2019m not prepared for none of this,\u201d replied the manager. <\/p>\n

Records show menudo made the day before the inspection was 62 degrees. Metro Health said cooked foods have to be cooled down to 41 degrees within six hours. <\/p>\n

The manager denied leaving out the saucy dish overnight, and said their coolers were working. <\/p>\n

\u201cThen how did this happen?\u201d Ibarra asked. \u201cIt was about 20 degrees warmer than it should be, and it can grow bacteria that can make people sick.\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cYeah I understand,\u201d replied the manager. \u201cWe threw it out.\u201d <\/p>\n

Metro Health also noted several areas of the store needed cleaning. The manager did not show KSAT what had been corrected.<\/p>\n

Best Damn Wing Company<\/p>\n

KSAT also visited the Best Damn Wing Company, located at 3857 East Southcross. <\/p>\n

The restaurant received a 91 during a Sept. 24 inspection<\/a>, but one of its five violations raised questions. <\/p>\n

According to the inspection report, one live roach and seven dead large roaches were found inside a food and food container storage room.<\/p>\n

A manager was not available to answer questions when KSAT stopped by.<\/p>\n
