Examples of non-potentially hazardous foods that may be sold: cakes, candies, cookies, breads, fruit pies.

Examples of potentially hazardous foods that are prohibited: diary products, meat and poultry products, uncooked or undercooked eggs (including meringue and custard pies), fish and seafood. If the food requires refrigeration, it is potentially hazardous and is prohibited.
