What food causes illness?
• Any food can cause foodborne illness
– Even non-time/temperature control for safety foods
• Characteristics of a time/temperature control for
safety (TCS) food:
– Low acid
– Moist
– Contains protein
Keep time/temperature control for safety food out
of the temperature danger zone!

danger zone, harmful
bacteria can grow,
multiply, and possibly
cause infection
• Bacteria can double in
number in as little as 20
minutes
7
Cross contamination
• Bacteria can be transferred from one food to
Eat foods
another if foodReady
is not To
properly
stored
Leftover
foods
• Store raw food below
cooked
or ready-to-eat food
Whole
beef, fish, and pork

Basics of
handwashing
① Wet hands with arm water
② Apply hand soap
③ Scrub for at least 10-15 seconds, while cleaning under
fingernails and between fingers
④ Rinse thoroughly under warm running water
⑤ Dry with a single-use paper towel or warm-air hand
dryer
⑥ Use paper towel to turn off the water faucet and to open
the bathroom door when returning to work
**Remember that hand sanitizers are not a replacement for
effective and proper hand washing.**
11
When to wash hands

rotation of foods in storage
• When foods are received,
put the oldest in the front
and the newest in the back
• Past-dated foods will lose
their quality and sometimes
become unsafe
• Inventory cycle
26
Salvaged items
• Providing a separate and
labeled storage area for
salvaged items
– To be taken to Food Bank if
possible
• Implementing procedures
for handling and removal of
salvaged, expired, damaged,
or contaminated foods

items must also be
documented
27
Are these acceptable?
28
How about this can?
Choose a can that has
these features:
Undented seams
Flat ends which curve
slightly inwards
Straight sides
29
Cross-contamination in
storage
• Bacteria can be
transferred from one
food to another if food
is not properly stored
• Store raw food below
cooked or ready-to-eat
food
• Properly cover foods
30
Proper storage to prevent
contamination
Whole beef, fish,
and pork

Shipping
52
Pre loading process
• Check to make sure
the truck is clean and
remove any debris
• Turn on cooler at least
45 minutes
• Items to be loaded are
sorted and staged
53
Loading
• Wheels are chocked
• Dry products first
followed by
refrigerated and then
frozen items
• Load to minimize
damage and
movement during
transportation
54
Unloading
• Travel time with/without
refrigeration (temperature)
• Multi-stop delivery process
• Kitchen staff available to
receive product
• Unload with hand trucks
• Store all product in appropriate
location to prevent cross
contamination
55
Catering
• Prepared food is
handled to minimize
contamination during
transportation
– Vehicles shall be
maintained in a clean,
sanitary condition
• Temperature
monitoring
– Cold foods cold <
41°F
• Food in transit must be
protected from
contamination and
must meet the
temperature
requirements noted
above
• Proper storage at
location
56
Sanitation
Preventing cross contamination
57
Cleaning
• Cleaning is the process
of removing food and
other soils
• Cleaning agents:




Detergents
Solvent cleaners
Acid cleaners
Abrasive cleaners
58
Sanitizing
• Sanitizing is the process of reducing the number of
microorganisms that are on a properly cleaned
surface to a safe level
• Sanitizing agents only work on properly cleaned
and rinsed surfaces
59
Locations
• Floors, trashcans, utility carts/dollies, storeroom
and shelving
• Hand sink, ice machine
• Walk in refrigerator and freezer
• Transport vehicles
60
How this process works
① Washing helps loosen soils and other organic
matter from the surface
② Detergent and scrubbing also helps break the
adhesion of microorganisms to the surface
61
How this process works
③ Rinsing removes loosened soil and detergent
from the surface
 This step is important because organic material and
detergent can bind up sanitizer making it less effective
62
How this process works
④ Applying the sanitizer to clean surfaces actually
provides a ‘kill’ step for reducing the number of
microorganisms
63
How this process works
⑤ The surface is not completely free of
microorganisms, but the number is greatly
reduced
64
Measuring Sanitizer Strength
• A test kit that
accurately measures
the concentration of
sanitizing solutions
must be available
• The strength of
sanitizing solutions
must be measured
frequently during use
65
Material safety data sheets
• Occupational Safety and Health Administration
(OSHA) requires a Material Safety Data Sheet
(MSDS) for all chemicals
• On every MSDS, be familiar with the following
sections:
–
–
–

Food Defense
70
Food defense
• Protect food from intentional contamination
– Disgruntled current or former employee
– Members of terrorist or activist groups posing as: cleaning
crew, contractors, truck drivers, visitors, and utility
representatives
• Primarily about limiting access to products
• Understanding what might happen and monitoring
who has access to food
• Identify your vulnerabilities and implement food
defense solutions
Exterior security measures
• Providing adequate lighting around the
outside of building
• Accounting for all keys to
establishment
• Locked doors, gates, roof access,
windows
– Emergency exits
• Loading dock access
• Prevent environmental contamination
and infestation by insects or vermin
72
Interior security measures
• Accounting for all keys to
establishment
• Providing adequate lighting
– Emergency lighting and alert
system
• Checks/reports suspicious
packages
– Bathrooms, closets, etc
• Cleaning supplies, pest control
chemicals and other hazardous
material
73
Personnel security measures
• Restricting entry to the
establishment
– Requiring proof of identity
– Escorting visitors
• Employee vehicles are identified
and lockers inspected
• Training employees on emergency
evacuation procedures
– Include a map and meeting
location to account for all
employees
74
Incoming Shipments
• Restricted access to
loading docks
• All deliveries checked
against the roster of
scheduled deliveries
• Returned goods are
segregated and records
are maintained
75
Handling a Food Recall
76
Food recall
• Occurs when there is reason to believe that a food
may cause consumers to become ill. Can be
initiated by a:
– Food manufacturer or distributor
– Government agency (USDA or FDA)
• Causes can be:
– Discovery of an organism in a product
– Discovery of a potential allergen in a product
– Mislabeling or misbranding of food
• http://www.fda.gov/safety/recalls/default.htm
77
Snokist canned apple sauce
• In May 2011, 9 North Carolina kids reported
vomiting and nausea after eating Snokist apple
sauce.
• The canned apple sauce had faulty seals and was
possibly reworked moldy applesauce.
• Product oozing out of cans and employees still
served to students.
Snokist recall
79
Food recall issued
• Review the food recall notice and specific instructions
• Communicate the food recall notice to school
cafeterias
– Via email, phone, etc
• Hold the recalled product
– Physically segregate the product (including open containers,
leftovers, etc)
• Mark recalled product ‘Do Not Use’ and ‘Do Not
Discard’
– Inform the entire staff
80
Food recall
• Do not destroy any USDA commodity food without
official written notification from NCDA, USDA FSIS,
or State/Your County health department
• Inform Your County PSS’s public relations
coordinator of the recalled product
• Identify and record whether any of the product was
received in Your County PSS, locate the implicated
product by cafeteria site
– Verify that the food item bears the product identification
code and production date listed in the recall notice
81
Food recall
• Obtain accurate inventory counts of the recalled product
from every cafeteria site, including the amount in
inventory and amount used
• Account for all recalled product by verifying inventory
counts against records of food receiving at the feeding site
• Notify feeding site staff of procedures, dates, and
directions to be followed for the collection or destruction
of recalled product
• Consolidate the recalled product as quickly as possible,
but no later than 30 days after the recall notification
82
Conform to the recall notice
• Report quantity and site where product is located
to manufacturer, distributor, or NCDA for
collection
– If USDA commodity must be submitted to NCDA
within 10 days of recall
• Obtain necessary documents from NCDA for
USDA commodity foods
83
Conform to the recall notice
• Complete and maintain all required documentation
related to the recall including
–
–
–
–
–
Recall notice
Records of how food product was returned or destroyed
Reimbursable costs
Public notice and media communications
Correspondence to and from the public health
department and NCDA
84
Power Outage
Preventing cross contamination
Controlling time and temperature
85
Refrigerators
• Note the time the outage
occurred
• Food should be safe as long
as the power is out no more
than about 4 to 6 hours
• Leave the door closed
– When open needed cold air
escapes, allowing the foods
inside to reach unsafe
temperatures
86
Freezers
• Leave the freezer door closed
• With the door closed, food in
most freezers will stay below
41°F for up to 3 days
– Full freezer should keep
food safe about 2 days
– Half-full freezer, about 1
day
• You can safely re-freeze
thawed foods that still
contain ice crystals and are
41°F or less
87
Thawing
• Freezing does not kill microorganisms, but it does
slow their growth
• During a power outage, frozen food can begin to
thaw, resulting in the outer surface warming up
and allowing harmful microorganisms to grow
• The time it takes for food to thaw depends on:
–
–
–
–
Amount of food in the freezer
Kind of food
Temperature of the food
Size and insulation of freezer
88
When in doubt, throw it out!
• If it appears the power will be off for more
than 6 hours
– Ice, dry ice, or frozen gel packs may be used to
keep TCS foods at 41°F or below
• Moving refrigerated food to a walk-in freezer
or obtaining a refrigerated truck are other
options to keep food safe
• Food should not be transferred to
private homes
89
Discarding items
• Foods that can safely be stored above 41°F for a
few days include:
– Whole non-cut fresh fruits and vegetables
– Condiments such as ketchup, mustard, relishes,
barbecue sauce, soy sauce, olives
– Jams and jellies
– Bread, rolls, bagels, cakes (without cream or
custard), cookies and muffins
– Most hard cheeses including parmesan, asiago and
pecorino
90
91
Power restored
• Identify and discard TCS foods that may have been
above above 41°F for 4 hours
• Check the internal food temperatures using a food
thermometer and record the temperature.
• If practical, separate packages of food in refrigeration
units and freezers to allow for faster recooling.
• The refreezing of food may affect the quality and
should be used within a short period of time.
