Where should you store waste and recycling?

In the kitchen
Next to food prep areas
Away from food
In refrigerated units

The correct answer is: Away from food

It is important to store waste and recycling away from food, as contamination can occur. If waste is stored in the kitchen or near food prep areas, it increases the risk of cross-contamination and foodborne illness. Storing waste and recycling in refrigerated units is also not recommended, as this can take up valuable space and prolong exposure to potential bacteria. It is best to have a designated, separate area for waste and recycling that is away from food storage and preparation areas.
