    • C.

    • D.

      Wait until the pint freezer is completely empty before refilling

    Correct Answer
    A. To ensure freshness, place the pints from the walk-in freezer in the back of the pint freezer, bringing existing stock towards the front
    Explanation
    The correct answer explains that to rotate stock in the pint freezer, the pints from the walk-in freezer should be placed in the back of the pint freezer, while the existing stock is brought towards the front. This ensures freshness as it follows the principle of "first in, first out" (FIFO), where older stock is used before newer stock. By placing the older stock at the back, it ensures that the newer stock is used first, reducing the chances of any products expiring or becoming less fresh.

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The correct answer is true because when handling products, especially perishable items like ice cream, it is important to prioritize using the oldest stock first.

This means that the inventory board should be updated every time any products are taken out of the walk-in freezer, regardless of whether it is during opening or closing duties, or if it is busy or not. This ensures that the inventory is always accurate and up to date, allowing for better management of the products and preventing any discrepancies or shortages.

    • D.

      Only season once per day

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Every morning after they heat up

    Explanation
    The waffle cone irons should be seasoned every morning after they heat up because this allows the oil to adhere to the surface properly and prevent sticking. Additionally, they should be seasoned every time they get a little sticky to maintain the non-stick properties of the irons. Seasoning once per day may not be sufficient if the irons become sticky multiple times throughout the day.

Writing down your mom's birthday or the date you put the cream in the canister would not provide any relevant information about the cream's expiration, which is crucial for food safety.
