ServSafe Food Handlers Practice Exam

When labeling bulk food in self-serve areas, what is required?

1. Price only

2. Nutritional information

3. A card, sign, or other labeling methods

4. A barcode

The correct answer is: A card, sign, or other labeling methods

When labeling bulk food in self-serve areas, it is required to provide a card, sign, or other labeling methods. This helps to ensure that customers are informed about the food they are selecting, such as ingredients, allergens, and any potential health warnings. Price alone may not provide sufficient information for customers, and nutritional information may be helpful but is not always required in this context. A barcode may not be practical for self-serve areas where customers need immediate information about the food they are selecting. Therefore, option C is the most appropriate requirement for labeling bulk food in self-serve areas.
