Explanation
Answer: A - The Sleepyside Inn needs to cook its scrambled eggs to a minimum internal temperature of 155°F for 15 seconds before serving the eggs at a breakfast buffet. Eggs that will be served immediately can be cooked to 145°F for 15 seconds. Foods that are held for service need to be cooked differently to reduce the risk of foodborne illness.
