“Blake Lively’s Shocking PR Stunt at Local Donut Shop Sparks Controversy and Health Investigation!”
One Yelp user J.J. said, “Is it the practice at this doughnut shop to allow employees handling the food to wear their hair loose & hang a few inches above a tray of doughnuts? Why don’t your employees have to wear hairnets? This does not seem sanitary.”
As reported by the outlet, one user named Stephanie T. seemed to have been one of the people to report Rise to the health department after their visit on Sunday, saying they “found long, stringy hay-like hair in my doughnuts,” adding, “Perhaps it was from the loud, annoying blond woman working behind the corner.”

Another by the name of Wendi C. stated, “No matter who is baking or serving, food safety guidelines need to be followed. Friends shouldn’t be hanging out in the food prep areas, leaning on equipment and not having their hair up.”
Yiyi Z. wrote on the app, “Found a hair in my doughnut, would not recommend. Do the workers not have hygiene training before serving food?”
Many people on Yelp flocked to the app to claim they had found hair in their treats

As per the FDA Food Code, one person claimed, “These basic food safety standards are not followed. Recent pictures and video show no one in this establishment follows protocol. Health inspector has been notified.”
One video that Rise Doughnuts posted on Instagram on October 11 seemed to be evidence of such, where the staff could be seen around the treats with no hairnets.
