Terms in the inspectors’ reports

Time/temperature control for safety food
Food that has to be kept hot, at 135°F or above, or cold, at 41°F or below, to stay safe: meat, seafood, eggs, dairy, cooked rice and beans, cut melons and the like.
Wet nesting
Stacking dishes or containers before they have dried, which traps moisture where germs can grow.
Ambient temperature
The air temperature inside a cooler or holding unit, rather than the food’s own.
