3-501.17 (A) or (B) Date mark/label all TCS foods that are ready-to-eat once opened or prepared and are to be held for more than 24 hours. -Pf. Establish a date marking system consistent with 3-501.17 (A) or (B). Additional date marking system options are found in 3-501.17 (D). Observed approximately nine (9) items in server RIC (salad bin and salad bowls) with door date marks denoting date of prep of 7/13. Per conversation with PIC, date marks were placed on Monday (7/13), but had not been changed to reflect salad portions prepped on day of inspection (7/15). CDI - Door labels were changed to reflect date of preparation.
Note: as described, establishment uses containers with date labels to hold TCS food portions (trays with individual salads, bins holding rice bowls, etc.) and cross out original dates once portions are complete to add new label. EHS advises removal of old labels and writing new label, so as to denote that a new portion of TCS food is being stored.
