During the inspection, proper thawing and date marking was discussed and demonstrated. The use of cleanable and durable liners was also discussed. There is an employee health policy for this facility. During the time of the inspection, there was no preparation or service. Thank You.
- Critical: Date Marking - Ready-to-Eat; Potentially Hazardous Food; Date Marking*
Observation: The ready-to-eat (RTE) commercially processed smoked sausage in the refrigeration unit was not properly dated for disposition after opening.
Correction: Mark a ""consume by"" date on commercially processed RTE foods at the time the original container is opened. 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.
