Inspector’s Notes

Observed raw meat thawing on the counter top. This is not approved. Discussed thawing methods with staff on site. Only use one of the methods outlined in the rule above.

In Plain English

Food was not kept cold enough, hot enough, cooled fast enough, or cooked or reheated to the right temperature. Bacteria grow quickly in the "danger zone" between 41°F and 135°F, which makes this one of the most important food-safety checks.
