Tuesday, November 29, 2016
CHICAGO (WLS) -- It may have been a while since a health inspector has checked out your favorite food spot, according to a report released Tuesday by the city's inspector.

Lower risk-establishments, such as bars, are less likely to be checked out in a timely matter -- less than one of four, an audit showed.

The city inspector called the findings "troubling," but said there's no evidence that public health has been compromised.
