Correction: Discard the food at this time and ensure all prepared RTE food is served, sold or discarded by the ""consume by"" date. 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.

- Critical: Hands - Preventing Contamination from Hands* (corrected on site)

Correction: Provide suitable utensils such as deli tissue, spatulas, tongs, single-use gloves, or dispensing equipment to handle RTE food to prevent contamination from hands.
- Food Storage - Clean and Dry Location (corrected on site)
Observation: Potatoes stored on the floor or food stored less than 6" above the floor.;Elevate food storage onto approved shelving with minimum 6" legs or casters.
- Critical: Cooling* (corrected on site)
Observation: Beef Brisket noted not being adequately cooled to prevent the growth of harmful bacteria.
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.
- Critical: Food - Potentially Hazardous Food - Cold Holding* (corrected on site)
Observation: Tomato, cheese, eggs cold holding at improper temperatures (45°F)
Correction: Relocate food to a refrigeration unit that is capable of maintaining food storage at 41°F or below.
- Critical: Date Marking - Ready-to-Eat - Potentially Hazardous Food - Date Marking* (corrected on site)
Observation: The prepared ready-to-eat (RTE) chicken salad in the refrigeration unit is 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.
- Cooling, Heating, and Holding Capacities
Observation: Walk In, Reach-In, and Prep RI was overstocked and is not sufficient in number or capacity to meet the food storage demands of the establishment.
Correction: Adjust the equipment necessary to maintain food items at 41°F. Overstocked equipment does not allow for proper air circulation and/or heat transfer. Improper food storage temperatures are a major contributing factor to foodborne illness.
