What should not be re-served to another customer?

Food dropped on the floor
Food returned by one customer
Uncooked food
Spoiled food

The correct answer is: Food returned by one customer

Food returned by one customer should not be re-served to another customer because once food has been served to a customer, it is considered potentially contaminated and should not be served to anyone else to prevent the spread of foodborne illnesses. Cross-contamination can occur when food that has been served and then returned is re-served to another customer, even if it appears to be untouched. It is important to discard returned food to ensure food safety and prevent the risk of foodborne illness. Options A, C, and D are not correct in this scenario because: - Food dropped on the floor should be discarded due to the risk of contamination from bacteria and other pathogens. - Uncooked food can be safely prepared and served to customers as long as it reaches the appropriate internal temperature to kill any harmful bacteria. - Spoiled food should never be served to customers as it can make them sick and is a violation of food safety regulations.
