   • Improper cooling. Many people think that once a food has been properly cooked, all disease-causing organisms (pathogens) have been killed. This is not true.
   • Advance preparation. Advance preparation is the cause of many food-poisoning outbreaks, usually because food has been improperly cooled. Often, foods that are prepared well before serving spend too much time in the danger zone.
   • Infected person. Many people carry pathogens somewhere on or in their bodies without knowing it—in their gut, in their nose, on their hands, in their mouth, and in other warm, moist places.
   • Inadequate reheating for hot holding. Many restaurants prepare some of menu items in advance or use leftovers in their units the next day. In both cases, the foods travel through the danger zone when they are cooled for storage and again when they are reheated.
