In the Jackson area, three restaurants received a failing health inspection grade in September, according to the Mississippi State Department of Health.

Below are the restaurants and food service facilities in District V, including Hinds, Rankin and Madison counties, which received a failing grade of “C.”

Hinds County
All three locations are in Hinds County:
One Stop Concession: During its inspection on Sept. 25, One Stop Concession in Jackson, a mobile unit located on 3295 Forest Hill Rd., received a failing C rating. The only other inspection at this site occurred in 2018 when One Stop Concession received an A rating. A record of the recent failing inspection shows One Stop Concession lacked an adequate hand-washing facility, properly sanitized surfaces in contact with food and a certified manager. As of Oct. 2, One Stop Concession had not received a follow-up inspection.
Piggly Wiggly: During a scheduled inspection on Sept. 19, the Piggly Wiggly at 225 Meadowbrook Rd. in Jackson received a C rating due to improper temperatures for keeping cold food and improper toilet facilities. This location received a C rating once before in Jan. 2023. On Sept. 30, the Piggly Wiggly passed the corrective follow-up inspection with a B rating.
The Mighty Crab: During a permit inspection, the Mighty Crab at 6380 Ridgewood Court Drive in Jackson received a C rating due to inadequate hand-washing facilities. On Sept. 25, the restaurant passed a follow-up inspection and received a B rating. The Mighty Crab had not received a failing grade before.

The grading system:
The MSDH grades health inspections on an A, B and C scale, with C considered a failing grade.
The MSDH website states the following regarding the grading scale:
A rating: “The facility inspection found no critical violations. Critical violations of the state Food Code are those more likely to lead to food contamination, illness, or other health risk.”
B rating: “Critical violations were found, but corrected under the supervision of the inspecting environmentalist. No further corrective actions are required.”
C rating: “Critical violations were found, but some or all were not corrected during the inspection. The facility will be re-inspected, and all violations must be corrected in a time period not to exceed 10 days. The re-inspection date is posted on the graded report. If violations are not corrected in the specified time, steps are taken to suspend the facility’s permit to operate. A grade of C is also given if critical violations are repeated from the last inspection, even if they were corrected at that time.”
