3-501.15 Quickly cool foods. Use methods such as open/vented shallow pans, large ice baths and active stirring. Cold air must flow around product to remove the heat. -Pf Observed one (1) portion of recently cut cantaloupe slices rotated from prep to WIC with tight plastic wrap covering it. When observed, cantaloupe was cooling insufficiently. Observed five (5) portions of recently cut and prepped TCS foods (cantaloupe bowl in RIC, fruit bowls in reach in display) above 41F. Food labels confirmed that these items had all been prepared less than 2 hours prior. CDI - Plastic wrap was removed from cut cantaloupe to improve cooling. Items on display were rotated to WIC to cool effectively before being placed for sale. EHS provided ambient temperature cooling chart. REPEAT.
Note: no escalation in point deduction due to improvement from previous inspection; No failure to cool was observed during inspection, as all items were prepared fewer than 4 hours prior.
