Question

a food worker puts on a clean pair of gloves before cleaning and sanitizing his knife and cutting board. he then chops ingredients for a salad. what food hazard is most likely to contaminate the salad? o a. clostridium botulinum o b. pathogens on the knife blade o c. plastic from the food workers gloves o d. cleaning chemicals on the food workers gloves

Explanation:

The food - worker cleaned and sanitized the knife and cutting board, reducing the risk of pathogens on the knife blade. Clostridium botulinum is not directly indicated by the actions described. Since the gloves were put on before cleaning and sanitizing, there is a risk that cleaning chemicals from the gloves could contaminate the salad. Plastic from gloves is less likely to contaminate in this scenario compared to cleaning chemicals.

Answer:

d. Cleaning chemicals on the food worker's gloves
