When combining two date-marked ready-to-eat TCS foods (for example, mixing two batches of cooked chicken prepared on different days) into one dish, what discard date should be used?
a.The earliest (soonest) discard date of the ingredients
b.The later (furthest-out) discard date of the two combined batches
c.No date mark at all, because combining makes a new dish
d.A fresh 7-day count beginning the day the dish is mixed
解析
When ready-to-eat TCS ingredients with different date marks are combined, the finished dish must carry the earliest discard date among its components, so nothing is held past its safe limit. Taking the later date, restarting the 7-day count on the day of mixing, or dropping the date mark entirely would all let the older batch exceed the maximum safe age. The 7-day maximum at 41°F still governs each component.
