NightSide - Are Boston Restaurants A Health Risk?

BOSTON (CBS) - The Boston Globe waded through piles and piles of city records, and found that nearly half of the city's restaurants and food service locations have been cited for serious health and sanitary code violations just last year alone. With more than 1,350 establishments getting dinged for at least two violations that could result in food-borne illness, it seems even the fanciest eateries in Boston have had a hard time keeping their noses, along with other things in the kitchen, clean. Do you think about cleanliness when you go out to eat? If your favorite restaurant is on the list, would you want to know? Or would you rather take the ignorance is bliss approach and continue to enjoy your favorite dish?
