criticalCode 21Food temperature

Official wording

PROPER COLD HOLDING TEMPERATURES

Inspector’s notes

TCS food not maintained at 5°C (41°F) or below. (Reach-in cooler holding flan and whipped cream at 58 degrees F.) (discarded)

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.

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.

Insect killer being sprayed by mop sink. It was also stored in dry storage above food.
