Red Seal Cook

Category - Safety and Sanitation

The “first in, first out” (FIFO) policy refers to:
  1. Organization of chits, specifically what order prepared food is sent out to the dining room
  2. Rotation of foods in the fridge
  3. Employee shifts and break scheduling
  4. Cleaning schedules
Explanation
Answer: B - The “first in, first out” policy refers specifically to food rotation and is done so in order to minimize spoilage and maintain a clean, organized kitchen. The basic principle behind “FIFO” is essentially that the oldest foods are always used first thus ensuring that waste is minimized and only fresh foods are being used. FIFO should also be applied to foods that are prepared for use on the line and old food should never be mixed in with new food.
