TCS food items held on the line under Time as a Public Health Control were observed without updated time stickers. The stickers reflected a time of 10:00; however, the TCS food items were changed at 2:00 PM and the stickers were not updated. Management showed the Registered Environmental Health Specialist (REHS) that the times were updated in the temperature log book in the office area. After review, it was also observed that a down arrow was drawn on the boxes where temperatures were to be documented.
When switching TCS food items under Time as a Public Health Control, food removed from cold holding must be at 41°F or below, and temperatures should be documented in the log book to ensure proper starting temperatures.
When using Time as a Public Health Control (maximum 4 hours):
- Food shall have an initial temperature of 135°F or greater when removed from hot holding.
- Food shall be marked to indicate the time that is 4 hours from removal from temperature control.
- Food shall be cooked, served, or discarded within 4 hours.
- Unmarked or incorrectly marked food shall be discarded.
REHS allowed management to update the stickers since the log book had been updated; however, the full procedure shall be followed consistently. CDI, REPEAT |
