Follow-up
Critical: Cooling* (corrected on site) Observation: Grilled onions and peppers noted not being adequately cooled to prevent the growth of harmful bacteria. Grilled onions and peppers cooked this morning and placed in a covered container in the refrigerator are still 70 F.
Correction: Cool potentially hazardous foods from 135°F to 70°F within 2 hours and within a total of 6 hours from 135°F to 41°F. A longer time for cooling allows an ideal situation for bacterial growth. This has been shown to be the major contributing factor in many foodborne illnesses. Grilled peppers and onions discarded during inspection. Suggest cooking peppers and onions and keeping them hot during the day instead of cooling them.
