During health inspections, inspectors distribute violations that carry a weight between 1 and 25, increasing with severity. The term "demerit" is used by city health inspectors to describe the weighed value assigned to each violation. The Houston Chronicle obtained the results of routine health inspections throughout the city and tallied each restaurant's demerits for a comprehensive list of violations.
