The temperature range known as the Danger Zone is

  • A.40 to 140 degrees Fahrenheit
  • B.0 to 40 degrees Fahrenheit
  • C.140 to 212 degrees Fahrenheit
  • D.32 to 60 degrees Fahrenheit

Answer: A

Correct answer: 40 to 140 degrees Fahrenheit

The Danger Zone runs from 40 to 140 degrees Fahrenheit, that is roughly 4 to 60 degrees Celsius - cold enough at the bottom to slow growth to a crawl, hot enough at the top to prevent it. Between those limits foodborne pathogens multiply, most rapidly around body temperature. The whole of temperature control in a kitchen consists of keeping food out of that range, or limiting the total time spent in it.
