A slicer is used continuously to slice deli meats throughout a busy lunch. How often must its food-contact surfaces be cleaned and sanitized during that continuous use?
a.At least every 4 hours
b.Every 12 hours
c.Only once at the end of the day
d.Only when it looks visibly dirty
解析
Food-contact surfaces of equipment used with TCS food in continuous operation must be cleaned and sanitized at least every 4 hours to keep pathogen levels from building up. Waiting until the end of the day or until soil is visible allows bacteria to grow between uses. More frequent cleaning is required when contamination is likely.
