When to use this sheet

Use this when chilled or frozen food arrives and someone has to accept or reject it before it is put away.

How to complete it

Write the supplier, the food, the temperature you measured, accept or reject, and what happened to rejected food. Do not round a warm reading down so the line looks acceptable.

What this does not replace

It does not replace the supplier’s specification where that is colder than the general chill rule, and it does not make unsafe food safe by putting it in the fridge.
