criticalCode 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; All TCS foods inside walk-in cooler above 41F. PIC stated a delivery was received an hour prior and delivery staff propped door open for an extended period of time. TCS foods shall be maintained at 41F or below. CDI: EHS checked food after an hour; and it was beginning to lower in temperature. Please refrain from propping open the cooler door.
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.
