notedCode 3-501.16 (A)(2) and (B)Food temperature

Official wording

Proper cold holding temperatures

Inspector’s notes

3-501.16 (A)(2) and (B); Priority; Two cartons of half & half holding above 41 F in the lowboy cooler closest to the cash register. TCS (Time/Temp. Control for Safety) foods in cold holding shall be maintained at 41 F or less. CDI - PIC voluntarily discarded out-of-temperature half & half (at 50 F); and half & half holding at 45 F moved to cool rapidly in a tall reach-in cooler.

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.
