    The three categories of food safety hazards are biological, physical, and...

    • Practical

    • Temporal

    • Thermal

    • Chemical

    Correct Answer
    A. Chemical
    Explanation
    The correct answer is Chemical. Chemical hazards refer to substances that can contaminate food and cause harm to consumers. These hazards can include cleaning agents, pesticides, food additives, and allergens. It is important to identify and control chemical hazards to ensure the safety of the food supply chain.

    Rate this question:

  • 3. 

    What is the temperature range in which pathogens grow well in food? This is also known as the danger zone.

    • Between 50 degrees and 115 degrees fahrenheit

    • Between 35 degrees and 160 degrees fahrenheit

    • Between 40 degrees and 140 degrees fahrenheit

    • Between 38 degrees and 126 degrees fahrenheit

    Correct Answer
    A. Between 40 degrees and 140 degrees fahrenheit
    Explanation
    Pathogens thrive in a temperature range of 40 degrees to 140 degrees Fahrenheit, which is also referred to as the danger zone. In this temperature range, bacteria can multiply rapidly, increasing the risk of foodborne illnesses. Temperatures below 40 degrees Fahrenheit can slow down or inhibit bacterial growth, while temperatures above 140 degrees Fahrenheit can kill most pathogens. It is crucial to keep food out of this danger zone to ensure food safety.

    What does TCS stand for?

    • Temperature control for safety

    • Temperature control for sanitation

    • Temperature calibration system

    • Time control for safety

    Correct Answer
    A. Temperature control for safety
    Explanation
    TCS stands for Temperature control for safety. This acronym refers to a system or process that regulates and monitors temperature in order to ensure the safety of individuals or products. Temperature control is crucial in various industries such as food and pharmaceuticals to prevent the growth of bacteria or pathogens that can cause harm. By maintaining appropriate temperatures, TCS helps to mitigate potential risks and maintain safety standards.

    A. Milk and dairy products
    A. Rice and grains
    A. Produce
    A. Meat
    Explanation
    TCS foods, also known as Time/Temperature Control for Safety foods, are foods that require specific temperature control to prevent the growth of harmful bacteria. Milk and dairy products, rice and grains, produce, and meat all fall under this category as they need to be stored and handled properly to ensure food safety. These foods are susceptible to bacterial growth if not stored at the correct temperatures, making them potentially hazardous if mishandled.
