Inspector’s notes
Multiple Potentially Hazardous Food (PHF) within the walk in cooler measured between 44F - 48F. Ambient temperature of unit measured at 45F. No temperature logs provided. [CA]: Potentially Hazardous Food shall be cold held at 41F or below at all times. [COS/SA]: PHFs that have been in the unit for more than 4 hours were voluntarily discarded. PHFs that have been in the unit for less than 4 hours were relocated to another cooling unit.
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.
