1. YH's BBQ And Crab in Duluth receives a 55% on their recent health inspection (thegeorgiagazette.com) — A Duluth favorite, YH's BBQ and Crab on Pleasant Hill Road recently scored just 55 out of 100 on a state health inspection, temporarily losing its permit before it was reinstated. Inspectors cited repeat violations involving food storage, thawing, labeling, and handwashing practices, and a follow-up visit is scheduled within days, so expect changes if you plan to eat there soon.

2. Is your meat good to eat? Georgia distributor tied to major food recall (savannahnow.com) — A major recall of more than 160,000 pounds of raw pork, beef, and goat includes products shipped through A&D Foods in Duluth, so some local stores and restaurants may be affected. Because the meat lacked federal inspection and used a false USDA mark, residents are urged to check any unlabeled bulk meats and discard or return suspicious items rather than risk illness.
