Proper hot and cold holding temperatures

Inspector’s notes

In the 2 door preparation cooler, the following potentially hazardous foods measured between 49-51F: diced tomatoes, cooked beef/lamb meatballs, cooked sausage, cooked chicken, cooked beef, pepperoni, salami, ham, mozzarella cheese, cheddar cheese, ranch dressing, feta cheese, and pesto sauce. Per operator, all food items were placed in the unit at 10:30am. [CA] Potentially hazardous foods shall be held cold at 41°F or below. [SA] All food items were relocated to walk in cooler for rapid cooling.

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.
