Food has to be hot held or cold held. Food can not sit out on counter unless it is cooling down before refrigerating.

The Cooling process starts When food reaches 135 degrees. Food can not be put in refrigerator if food is higher that 135 degrees Fahrenheit. Establishment has two hours to get food from 135 to 70 degrees. Then they have four hours to get food from 70-41 degrees. If any step is not done within the time frame food must be reheated to 165 degrees Fahrenheit. Establishment will then start the cooling process over.


Food that has been cooked and held the next day must be date marked. In 7 days food must be discarded. Day one starts the day food has been cooked. This same rule is for chopped veggies. They must be date marked.
