What is the highest temperature allowed for cold-holding tuna salad?

The highest temperature allowed for cold-holding tuna salad is 41 degrees Fahrenheit (5 degrees Celsius) or below. This temperature range is recommended by food safety guidelines to prevent the growth of bacteria and ensure food safety. Cold-holding tuna salad, or any perishable food, above this temperature can allow pathogens to multiply rapidly and increase the risk of foodborne illness. It is essential to maintain a proper temperature during cold storage or refrigeration to keep tuna salad safe for consumption.
