minorCode K07Food temperature

Official wording

Proper hot and cold holding temperatures

Inspector’s notes

Whip cream in the insert of the smoothie cooler was measured at 49 degrees Fahrenheit. [Corrective Action] Maintain Potentially Hazardous Foods at or below 41 degrees Fahrenheit.

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.
