Ready-to-Eat Potentially Hazardous Food Date Marking and Disposition

Item 19 Ready-to-Eat Potentially Hazardous Food Date Marking and Disposition 2 points

Refrigeration does not prevent the growth of some organisms. Therefore it is necessary to date all potentially hazardous food held longer than 24 hours to reduce the possibility of organisms increasing to hazardous levels.

*This applies to potentially hazardous food prepared onsite and opened packages.
