Official wording

Thaw TCS food by one of the following methods: • Inside a refrigerator • Kept completely under running water of 70 degrees F or less. The food must remain at 41 degrees F or less. • In a microwave oven • As part of the cooking process

Inspector’s notes

Frozen raw chicken and pork meats found being thawed sitting in the prep sink at ambient temperature. Note: PIC relocated them into the unit. Note: See above for appropriate thawing.

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.
