Category - IFSEA Food Manager Practice Test

John is moving dry food items from today’s food shipment into the dry-storage area. Using FIFO principles, where should the new food items be stored?
  1. Behind foods with earlier discard dates
  2. In the first available space
  3. On the floor until space is available
  4. Any of these are acceptable.
Explanation
Answer: A - When John is moving dry food items from today’s food shipment into the dry-storage area, FIFO principles say that the new food items should be stored behind foods with earlier discard dates. FIFO stands for First In First Out. Placing the food items with the earliest discard dates in the front position helps to ensure these items are used first. Dry foods need to be rotated for freshness in the same way that frozen or TCS foods need to be rotated.
