11/09/2015Follow-up
Discussed the following with the person in charge (PIC):
1. The species of tuna purchased that may be served undercooked is Thunnus albacares.
2. The EHSS provided the PIC with the requirements from the FDA Food Code regarding non-continuous cooking of raw animal products. Recommended that the PIC follow these requirements for partial cooking of raw animal foods.

  • Critical: Food Contact with Equipment and Utensils* (corrected on site)
    Observation: Observed the cook handle a raw hamburger patty with his gloved hand and then proceed to handle ready to eat foods at the sandwich prep station without changing gloves and washing hands. The EHSS interrupted the cook to instruct him to change his gloves and wash his hands after handling raw meats.
    Correction: Use only cleaned and sanitized utensils or equipment during food preparation.
  • Critical: Food - Potentially Hazardous Food - Hot Holding*
    Observation: (CORRECTED DURING INSPECTION): The following foods hot holding at improper temperatures:
    1. Hamburgers (partially cooked) observed at 76°F-80°F.
    2. Fried onions observed at 67°F. Grilled onions and cooked mushrooms at room temperature.
    3. Beef brisket-104°F.
    The person in charge (PIC) discarded the hamburgers, fried & grilled onions, and mushrooms. The beef brisket was rapidly reheated in the microwave oven and then hot held.

    Correction: Hot hold potentially hazardous food at 135°F or above to inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria.
  • Critical: Food - Potentially Hazardous Food - Cold Holding*
    Observation: The following foods cold holding at improper temperatures:
    1. Grill lowboy reach-in cooler: deli turkey-45°F, pigs & peppers-45°F.

    The PIC stated that he will lower the thermostat on both units.

    Correction: Cold hold potentially hazardous food at 41°F or below to inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria.
  • Critical: Date Marking - Ready-to-Eat - Potentially Hazardous Food - Date Marking*
    Observation: All prepared ready-to-eat (RTE) foods in the walk-in cooler are not properly dated for disposition.
    Correction: Mark the name and "consume by" date on the container of RTE foods at the time of preparation if the food is to be held for more than 24 hours. If the food is held at 41°F or below the food shall be served or sold within 7 calendar days. Some harmful bacteria continue to grow even at refrigeration temperatures so limiting the amount of time in storage limits the amount of growth allowed for these bacteria.
  • Equipment - Non-Food Contact Surfaces and Utensils
    Observation: Interior surfaces of the ice machine that is in contact with non-potentially hazardous food items were observed soiled with accumulations of grime and debris.
    Correction: Clean the surfaces of the ice machine at any time when contamination may have occurred, at least every 24 hours, before restocking the consumer self-service equipment/utensils, or per manufacturer specifications.
