criticalCode K07Food temperature

Official wording

Proper hot and cold holding temperatures

Inspector’s notes

In the 2 door reach in, raw shell eggs measured at 67F. PIC stated raw shell eggs were delivered approximately 3 hours prior to inspection and recently placed into the unit. [CA]: Potentially Hazardous Food (PHFs) shall be cold held at 41F or below at all times. Ensure PHFs are relocated into cooling units immediately upon receiving delivery.

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.
