GEORGE TOWN: Just three “bad apples” in a popular food court here caused health inspectors to issue a closure notice on all 50 food stalls.

The inspectors found cockroaches scampering about in food storage shelves in three stalls, food handlers using dirty towels and workers without typhoid vaccination, among other health regulation violations.
