  • Critical: Milk - Fluid Milk and Milk Products*
    Observation: Observed three jars of raw milk (unapproved source).
    Correction: Obtain fluid milk and products from sources that comply with Grade A standards as specified in law.
  • Critical: Cooling*
    Observation: The beans and rice were not being adequately cooled to prevent the growth of harmful bacteria. Also putting these products in the cooling unit at hot temperatures- raised the ambient air temp. of the entire unit. Discussed ways to properly cool the foods such as ice-bath or ice-paddle.
    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.

    Observation: Observed foods in the glass door unit cold holding at improper temperatures
    Correction: Relocate food to a refrigeration unit that is capable of maintaining food storage at 41°F or below. Discussed the process of proper cooling hot foods from the steamtable before putting them in the cooling unit. The hot-foods elevated the temperature of essentially all the foods in this unit.
