Cut tomato; tomato sauce and various shredded cheeses were observed between 44 and 47F. Walk-in cooler ambient air was observed fluctuating between 41 and 44F coming out of the evaporator.

PIC had already contacted technician when they realized cooler was slightly over temp this afternoon. Other TCS foods were voluntarily discarded. All other foods inside walk-in were cooling from recent prep or not TCS. EHS had remaining TCS foods brought to walk-in freezer to finish cooling and then instructed PIC to place them in working refrigeration units.
