Food Requiring Special Consideration
For this purpose, you can refer to the list below for special requirements for certain foods:
Food
|
Requirement
|
Ground meat
|
Serving raw or rare ground meat is prohibited due to the
potential for growth of pathogenic micro-organisms, which can only be
rendered harmless upon cooking to the appropriate internal cooking
temperature.
|
Stuffing, salads, hash, and ground beef
|
Stuffing, salads, hash, and ground beef are to be
discarded after meal service. These foods are all potentially hazardous
from the standpoint of Foodborne Illness and saving them for re-service
presents too much risk.
Further, salads such as egg, tuna, chicken, etc. and
ground meat shall not be used as sandwich filling for box lunches for crews
due to their potentially hazardous nature.
|
Poultry and Seafood
|
Serving raw or rare poultry and seafood is prohibited.

Fresh Eggs

Serving raw or half done eggs is prohibited.

Hollandaise and other sauces
|
Hollandaise and other sauces which pending service must be
held in the 5°C (41°F) to 60°C
(140°F) range may be exempt from the
temperature requirements provided they are prepared from fresh ingredients
and discarded as waste within three hours after preparation. Where such
sauces require eggs, only shell eggs shall be used.

Milk
All milk and fluid milk products for drinking purposes shall be purchased and served in the original individual container in which they are packaged at the milk plant, or shall be served from an approved bulk milk dispenser.
Cream, whipped cream, or half and half, which is to be consumed on the premises, may be served from the original container of not more than one-half gallon capacity or from a dispenser approved by the Chevron-appointed adviser.
