Proper hot and cold holding temperatures
Inspector’s notes
Brown rice measured 128F to 131F and white rice measured 121F to 127F. Per PIC, the rice finished cooking at 10am. [CA] PHFs shall be held at 41°F or below or at 135°F or above. [SA] Rice will be discarded at 2pm.
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.

Inspector’s notes
Observed hot shot insecticide on back storage shelf. [CA] Only those insecticides, rodenticides, and other pesticides that are necessary and specifically approved for use in a food facility may be used. Remove hot shot and discontinue use in the food facility.
In plain English
Cleaning products, pesticides, or other chemicals were stored or labeled in a way that could let them get into food. This is serious because chemical contamination can make people sick quickly.
