How often must equipment holding and dispensing TCS food be cleaned and sanitized?

Every week
Every 4 hours
Every day
Every month

The correct answer is: Every day

Equipment holding and dispensing TCS (Time/Temperature Control for Safety) food must be cleaned and sanitized at least once a day. This frequency helps prevent the build-up of harmful bacteria and ensures that the equipment is maintained at a safe and hygienic level for food handling. Cleaning and sanitizing equipment daily is essential to minimize the risk of foodborne illnesses and to maintain a clean environment in a food service establishment.
