Food Service.....fun stuff

YAY. Tomorrow I get to get up at the butt-crack of dawn to go to food service management class to learn a bunch of stuff I already know. I will share some of this superfluous knowledge now.

• cooked food stays good at room temperature for four hours, after that it is subject to all sorts of nasty bacteria like E-coli, salmonella, and other nasty food borne-illnesses.
• you can't serve food to people if you have a runny nose.
• All restaurants have cockroaches, it's a fact. They hide in every dark corner they can find, but if you see them running around the counters at your favorite eating establishment you probably shouldn't eat there (and call the health department)
• The proper temperature to cook chicken to is 160 degrees Fahrenheit
• For pork it is 150
• for beef it is 140
• None of this stuff applies to the ice-cream business (well except for the cockroach thing)

This is going to suck....
