notedCode 114012, 114093Food temperature

Official wording

Provide "Consumer Advisory" using DISCLOSURE (*) and a REMINDER: "Consuming raw or undercooked meats, poultry, seafood, shellfish, or eggs may increase your risk of foodborne illness, especially if you have certain medical conditions" for ready-to-eat foods., 113980, 113984 (a, b, d, e, f), 113986, 114060, 114067 (a, d, e), 114069, 114073, 114077, 114089.1(c), 114143(c) - Ensure all food is separated and protected from potential cross contamination. Store produce and ready-to-eat foods completely separate or above raw foods including but not limited to raw eggs, fish, meat, ratites, game animals, and poultry. Provide adequate sneeze-guard protection, a container that has a tight fitting and securely attached lid, or dispense food from an approved mechanical dispenser.

In plain English

Food was not kept cold enough, hot enough, cooled fast enough, or cooked or reheated to the right temperature. Bacteria grow quickly in the "danger zone" between 41°F and 135°F, which makes this one of the most important food-safety checks.
