Study Notes
Food Safety and Hygiene
- Food during transport must be covered to prevent physical contamination.
- Proper food storage order in refrigerators is crucial: salmon filets on top, followed by ground beef, and poultry at the bottom.
- Food contact surfaces should never be cleaned and sanitized using a sponge.
- Fresh plates must be provided in self-service areas to prevent hot food contamination.
- Shell eggs should be stored in a cooler at a temperature of 45°F or lower to ensure safety.
Regulatory Compliance
- A food operation must seek approval from local regulatory authorities to reopen after closing due to an imminent health hazard.
- Food handlers can continue working if they have hives, but must adhere to hygiene practices.
- Plans for new food establishments must be submitted to the regulatory authority before construction begins.
Disease Prevention and Allergies
- The best way to prevent virus spread is by purchasing food from approved suppliers.
- Designating a manager to answer allergy-related questions helps assist customers with food allergens.
- Correctly managing food recalls includes discontinuing use and removing affected items from inventory.
Cleaning and Sanitization

- Cleaning chemicals are classified into detergents, delimers, and abrasives, and should be stored away from food contact surfaces.
Food Handling Practices
- Food handlers should wash hands thoroughly before putting away clean utensils and after using hand antiseptics.
- Uncovered cuts on hands while preparing food pose a high risk for foodborne illness.
- Handling long hair properly by securing it under a hat is essential for hygiene.
Food Preservation and Storage
- Ice used to cool soup must be made from potable water.
- TCS (Time/Temperature Control for Safety) foods must be labeled with a use-by date that is 7 days post-preparation.
- Correct disposal methods entail using a service sink for wastewater and ensuring dumpster lids fit tightly.
Temperature Control and Equipment
- Safe food temperature limits: food must be held at 41°F or lower; improper reheating can lead to unsafe food being served.
- Using an air gap is an effective method to prevent backflow in plumbing systems.
- A bimetallic stemmed thermometer must have clear markings for accurate readings.
Hazard Communication
- A Safety Data Sheet (SDS) provides critical information about chemical hazards that food handlers may encounter.
- Notifying the regulatory authority is mandatory upon a food handler’s diagnosis with illnesses like Norovirus.
General Practices
- Establishments must have approved suppliers for shellfish and pasteurized eggs when serving vulnerable populations.
- Frequent handwashing is highlighted as the most crucial aspect of personal cleanliness in food service.
- Air curtains at delivery entrances help keep pests out of food areas.
Corrective Actions
- Corrective actions, such as reheating food at buffets, must ensure food reaches safe temperatures.

Important Definitions
- A cross connection refers to the link between safe and contaminated water.
- Food allergies are immune system reactions to specific foods, mandating careful management in food service.
Equipment Requirements
- Manual three-compartment sinks must be large enough to accommodate the largest utensils and equipment to ensure proper cleaning.
Conclusion
- Following these food safety and regulations is essential in maintaining a safe dining environment while preventing foodborne illnesses and ensuring overall public health and compliance with laws.
