Caption:

This 1975 image depicted a scene captured inside a migrant workers camp kitchen facility, revealing the head of an unclean French fry cutter, with its broken cutting blades. Not only was the device unsafe due to its broken blades, but the defects were making it difficult to properly clean, therefore, the device was not cleaned in a timely fashion, and remained in this unsanitary state, during food preparation. This image was used as part of a series, the purpose of which was to familiarize public health inspectors with proper food hygiene sanitation practices, and the myriad of food storage conditions found in migrant worker camps.
