you've looked at our interactive map and your favorite Malverne,

"You can go into almost any store and find some form of a
deficiency," said Jim Rogers, head of the Food Industry
Alliance, a trade group representing grocery stores in New York
state. For every critical deficiency -- a serious threat to food
safety -- that is shown on our map, there are 58 general
deficiencies, which are less serious.      "I don't mean they
shouldn't be addressed, but they don't impact food safety
directly," Rogers said.      And inspectors might have caught
the store on a bad day, said Robert Gravani, a professor of food
science at Cornell University.
