Sysco Brand Produce Delivers Peace Of MindAs a leading supplier of fresh produce in North America, Sysco takes food quality, safety and security very seriously. Sysco’s dedicated Quality Assurance Team is comprised of five representatives in Salinas, California, and one in Pompano Beach, Florida, with an additional nineteen regional field specialists across the country. Together, this team has developed a verification process to ensure the safety and integrity of Sysco brand products from field to fork.

Sysco’s Quality Assurance Team believes “we can’t expect if we don’t inspect”. To that end, procedures have been established for on-site inspections of field, processing and cooling facilities, ensuring compliance with Sysco’s stringent quality specifications. Additionally, Q.A. performs verification of annual independent audit results of food safety and security programs for all produce supplier partners.

Handling Fresh Produce

Proper handling of all fruits and vegetables from the moment a shipment arrives is key to ensuring quality offerings for your customers. Rough or excessive handling can damage even the heartiest fruits and vegetables. When moving shipping containers, do not drop them on the floor. Try to keep all handling to a minimum. Even a minor bruise on a produce item can trigger spoiling, and soon its fresh flavor and eye appeal is lost.

Storing Fresh Produce

Once a shipment of fresh produce is received and inspected to your satisfaction, it should be stored immediately. Remember, fresh fruits and vegetables are living, breathing organisms and should not be left out for long periods of time.

Exposure to extreme heat may dry out and damage produce, while exposure to extreme cold may actually freeze items or alter their ripening process. Therefore, to ensure quality fruits and vegetables for your customers, it is vital to get each item into its ideal storage environment as soon as possible after receipt.

Ethylene Sensitivity Chart Ethylene

Produce

Ethylene GasEthylene is one of the most active plant hormones known. Often called “ripening gas”, this chemical is produced naturally by ripening fruits and can be artificially introduced into the atmosphere to speed ripening. It is often used, for example, to ripen bananas and tomatoes. By placing peaches in a closed bag, you’re taking advantage of the fruit’s natural ethylene to speed softening.

While ethylene is great for ripening some fruits, the gas can cause premature decay among other fruits and vegetables that are sensitive to it. To avoid deterioration of sensitive commodities, you should avoid holding them in the same storage room or refrigerator compartment with products that emit a great deal of gas. Diseased or injured fruits generate substantially increased levels of ethylene, so remove injured produce right away. If you have only one cooler, keep lids on storage boxes, store sensitive commodities as far away as possible from gas producers, and rotate product properly. If your inventory turns quickly, ethylene should not present problems.

The answer depends on who you ask. While every self-respecting botanist will tell you that the tomato - which is fleshy, originates from a flower and carries seeds - is a fruit, the legal system begs to differ. Faced with the challenge of classifying the tomato as either fruit or vegetable in a dispute over import taxes, the 1893 Supreme Court ruled that the tomato, more

likely to appear in salads than desserts, was a vegetable. That ruling still stands today.

Sysco brand tomatoes are harvested by hand. They are then delivered to the repacking facility, and, if necessary, ripened to complete maturity. Once ready for packing, the

tomatoes are sorted for size and quality and then carefully graded using a high-intensity optic sorter. To avoid bruising, the tomatoes are hand-packed in special boxes.

Natures Hidden

Treasure... Mushrooms

Mushrooms’ incredible versatility makes them a welcome element in appetizers, entrees, soups and more. A quick sauté or a slow simmer draws out mushrooms’ complex flavor and smooth, toothsome texture, melding them with the aroma and essence of companion ingredients, and bringing definition and substance to any dish.

Fresh mushroom producers use state-of-the-art growing methods and handling practices to ensure high quality. A few simple steps will help preserve your supplies.

From pre-sliced to packs of mixed specialty varieties, mushrooms come in a wide array of labor-saving forms that help operators control costs. At the same time, mushrooms’ naturally

exotic image helps drive interest and sales.

• For optimum shelf life, mushrooms should arrive between 34 - 38 degrees F.

• Immediately refrigerate both bulk and pre-packaged mushrooms between 34 - 38 degrees F.

• Optimum humidity: 85 - 90 percent — also helps maintain quality and shelf life.

• Store in original containers. Do not store in non-porous plastic bags, as plastic accelerates mushroom deterioration.

• Do not store near pungent items as mushrooms may absorb strong odors.

• Do not stack heavy items on top of mushroom containers.

• Do not wash before storage.

• When ready to use, brush off any dirt with a damp cloth or soft brush. Rinse only briefly under running water and pat dry. Never soak them, as they absorb moisture. Trim the end of the stem before using.
