Which of the following is considered a TCS (Time/Temperature Control for Safety) food?

  1. Lettuce

  2. Cooked pasta

  3. Sprouts

  4. Cheese

The correct answer is: Sprouts

Sprouts are considered a TCS (Time/Temperature Control for Safety) food because they are more susceptible to bacterial growth due to their moist and warm growing conditions. They require specific temperature control to prevent pathogen development and ensure food safety. On the other hand, options A, B, and D do not fall under the category of TCS foods as they are less prone to bacterial growth and can be stored at more relaxed temperature conditions without compromising food safety.
