The requirement for date marking ready-to-eat tcs food prepared on-site was established to primarily address the growth of which pathogen?

The requirement was established principally to address the growth of LISTERIA MONOCYTOGENES, which is a bacteria that has the capacity to continue growing even at refrigerated temperatures. The date marking procedure was put in place in order to make sure that the affected foods are discarded before the bacteria can initiate food borne illness.

Date marking ready to eat TCS food was established to curb the growth of Listeria monocytogenes. Listeriosis is a serious illness caused by this bacterium. The requirement for this time-span is because the bacterium can grow and proliferate at refrigeration temperatures (less than or equal to 41 F).
