OK so heres the deal
I work in a cafe where we sale basically sandwich,soup, lattes, coffee, and. . smoothie drinks.
Not a large selection as you can see. We received a new order of food yesterday at about 1:00pm and and didn’t get put away right because I had to take an hour lunch break and at the time I was the only available co-worker holding down that department. Of course someone from another department was sent there to cover my lunch break bu they new very little about the department so they were of no assistance.
Anyways,
by the time I got back a lot of the food which was just packed sandwich meat and frozen soups amongst other items were beginning to thaw and finally one of the idiots I worked with came in and stated freaking saying that the meat
should be re-frozen. . . . and that people are going to get food poison and all this other shilly shally!!
I know that it is very important to be health & hygiene conscious when dealing in the foodservice department. I wouldn’t have it any other way. I believe in serving people food I would eat. . . . so that means nothing nasty and thrown together any kind of way.
Our cafe truly stands strong and believes in presentation in food and hygiene. . .
Heres the deal I work with a young high school and college students. I am a college student as well.
Our supervisor is out on vacation. but there are several reasons and policies that my job have that kept me from getting to the food right away. I called the one of the other supervisor for help and I did not receive it properly.
I feel somewhat responsible. Only thing is I do not have the authority to throw any of the food away. We received an order of food over I can imagine 1,000′s of dollars.
Should the food be thrown away or do you think we will be OK. The thing is the stuff didn’t get so thawed that it became hot or room temperature. . . . . it was all still (sand which meat )cold.
What should be done please. . . and don’t freak out!!
THANKS IN ADVANCE!!!

I like pie.
If food sits out for more then 3 hours than it should be thrown away. it is ok to refreeze the meat.
a question is how often do you change the ice under the trays of food and how cold do you keep your food on the prepping broad.? how often do you clean out your soup container and coffee machine.?and if you drop the a spoon or something do u put it in for wash or do u pick it up and still use it. After using the restroom, and then entering the kitchen do you wash your hands again in the kitchen?
