This event kicks off the mobile food grading program, which went into effect in parts of LA County at the beginning of 2011. According to LA County records there are approx 6000 mobile food facilities. Due to the success of the restaurant grading program, this has been rolled out to the mobile food facilities.


These facilities are inspected by public health for proven safe food handling techniques, cleanliness and demonstrated concern for the health and safety of consumers.Angelenos can be confident in making healthier decisions about the food they're eating.

See Official Video Inspection Process and Zev Yaroslavsky and Dr. Jonathan E. Fielding interviews with question and answer session regarding new Letter Grade Program implementation below.
