Save a spot for the Cal Poly Humboldt community in your prayers today. The campus is currently without sushi.

Yesterday afternoon, the county’s Division of Environmental Health issued a shutdown order to the Advanced Fresh Concept Franchise Corp.’s local sushi franchise location, there on the Cal Poly Humboldt campus.

Shouldn’t be that hard of a fix: The health inspectors dinged AFC Sushi for too-tepid water in the handwashing station, and could find no evidence of sanitizing solutions or testing strips at the facility. When those things are fixed, AFC Sushi — North America’s largest sushi franchise, we are told — can get rolling again.

Until then, students will either have to go across the footbridge to get their sushi in town, or else eat something other than sushi.
