  • 2. 

    Foods should be put in the fridge or freezer in less then two hours?

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    It is important to put foods in the fridge or freezer within two hours to prevent bacterial growth and food spoilage. When left at room temperature for too long, perishable foods can enter the "danger zone" where bacteria multiply rapidly. By refrigerating or freezing food promptly, the growth of harmful bacteria is slowed down, helping to maintain food safety and quality.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    Thawing frozen food on the kitchen counter is not safe because it allows the food to reach a temperature where bacteria can grow rapidly. This can lead to foodborne illnesses. It is recommended to thaw frozen food in the refrigerator, in cold water, or using the microwave's defrost setting.

    Which Dairy Product contains several nutrients?

    • Cheese

    • Ice Cream

    • Milk

    • Cream

    Correct Answer
    A. Milk
    Explanation
    Milk is the correct answer because it is a dairy product that contains several nutrients. Milk is rich in essential nutrients such as calcium, protein, vitamins (such as vitamin D and B12), and minerals. These nutrients are important for the growth and development of bones, teeth, and muscles. Milk also provides carbohydrates for energy and fats for overall health. Therefore, milk is considered a nutrient-dense food and is often recommended as part of a healthy diet.

    Rate this question:

  • 5. 

    You can tell if food is still ok to eat by smelling it?

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    Smelling food is not always a reliable indicator of whether it is safe to eat. Some harmful bacteria do not produce a noticeable odor, and certain foods may still be safe to consume even if they have a slight smell. It is important to consider other factors such as the appearance, texture, and expiration date of the food to determine its safety.
