Is it safe to consume food (e.g. buns, glutinous rice dumplings) kept in hot-holding cabinets?

Updated by SFA
Food that are kept in hot-holding cabinets is generally safe to eat if it has been cooked thoroughly before hot holding begins and if the food is kept at above 60°C during the display. Consumers are advised to consume the food immediately after purchase to limit the risk of bacterial growth at room temperature.
