-
Soy Burger
-
Swiss Cheese

Dried Parsley
Correct Answer
A. Dried ParsleyExplanation
Dried parsley is not considered a potentially hazardous food because it does not contain the same characteristics that make other foods potentially hazardous. Potentially hazardous foods are those that have a high moisture content and a neutral or slightly acidic pH, which create an environment for bacterial growth. Dried parsley has a low moisture content and a low pH, making it less susceptible to bacterial growth and therefore not considered potentially hazardous.Rate this question:

Correct Answer
A. Chopped celeryExplanation
Chopped celery is not considered a potentially hazardous food because it has a low pH level and a low water activity, making it less likely to support the growth of harmful bacteria. Potentially hazardous foods are those that have the right conditions for bacterial growth, such as high protein or moisture content. Sliced watermelon, alfalfa sprouts, and baked pears have higher moisture content and can support bacterial growth if not stored properly.Rate this question:

-
It is considered potentially hazardous food
-
It tastes better
-
It must not be mixed with other food
Correct Answer
A. It is considered potentially hazardous foodExplanation
If plant food is heat-treated, it is considered potentially hazardous food. Heat treatment can create an environment conducive to the growth of harmful bacteria, such as Salmonella or E. coli, which can cause foodborne illnesses. Therefore, heat-treated plant food may pose a higher risk to human health compared to non-heat-treated plant food.Rate this question:
