When you sit down and look at the menu at some of your favorite restaurants, do you ever think about the cleanliness of the kitchen? Outside of joking about someone spitting in your food if you send your plate back, I don't think most of us really think about the kitchen and what's really going on in there. Well, the latest health inspections at some Northern Colorado restaurants prove surprising, both good and bad.

Restaurants are scored on a multitude of factors, some violations are critical and other are non-critical. Non-critical marks can lead to potential problems if not corrected. Here's a birds eye view of what inspectors are looking for when they visit a restaurant. Restaurants are graded on, but not limited to cleanliness, product rotation (spoiling effect and proper labeling), proper chemical storage, proper sanitation techniques implementation, hand washing and correct glove use.
