Official Wording

Food contact surface not properly washed, rinsed and sanitized after each use and following any activity when contamination may have occurred.

Official Wording

Thawing procedure improper.

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.
