Dozens of rat droppings at Duane Reade. Uncomfortably warm shrimp at Food Emporium. Prime rib that had to be destroyed at Western Beef. Recent inspections of Upper West Side grocery stores have turned up all sorts of nastiness, and the results of those inspections have been compiled in a handy map for all to see (posted below).

This data, compiled by blog network Patch, is not easily available to the public like data on city restaurant inspections. Restaurants are inspected by the city Health Department, but grocery stores are inspected by the state Department of Agriculture and Markets. Inspection data must be requested from the agency.

You can click on the map below to see how your favorite grocery store fared at its most recent inspection. Red and purple markers show stores that failed their inspections. Below that, we’ve also listed some of the critical deficiencies (“an immediate threat to the public health and welfare”) that the state found at local grocery stores.

A couple of quick notes: There were no rats or mice seen at Fairway on 74th at a December inspection, but an inspector noted that “5-10 old appearing mouse droppings are present on staircase leading to second floor.” And as a commenter pointed out, at Whole Foods on 97th “two old, decayed rat carcasses are present on the floor along the walls in the loading dock area,” a discovery that apparently did not qualify as a critical deficiency. La la la, nothing to see here, just some rat carcasses.
