Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Potentially hazardous food (PHFs) is a food safety term used to describe foods that support the growth of pathogens that can cause foodborne illnesses. A PHF can be identified by three characteristics; a food that contains moisture, protein, and is slightly acidic.
Detailed explanation-2: -If the Aw of a food is less than 0.85, the food is not potentially hazardous. Should the Aw be greater than 0.85, the food is considered a PHF. Many foods have Aw levels of between 0.97 and 0.99.
