#22 — Proper Cold Holding TemperaturesPriority3-501.16

Inspector's notes

Observed a container of sliced tomatoes in the pizza prep tables at 50°F as measured internally with a calibrated probe thermometer. Per PIC, tomatoes had been in the unit for over 4 hours. Except during preparation, cooking, cooling or when time is used as a control all TCS foods must be maintained at 41°F or below. Eggs not treated to destroy Salmonellae can be stored in equipment that maintains an ambient air temperature of 45°F or below. All TCS foods improperly cold held were discarded by PIC at time of inspection. Discussed checking food temperatures internally with a probe thermometer instead of an infrared thermometer, as infrared thermometers can only measure surface temperatures. Corrective Action: Corrected at time of inspection.
