Certified Dietary Manager (CDM) Practice Exam

Question: 1 / 400

The most appropriate way to prevent cross-contamination while storing raw meat is to:

Keep raw meat above ready-to-eat food

Store at the highest point in the pantry

Store at the lowest point below ready-to-eat food

Storing raw meat at the lowest point below ready-to-eat food is the most appropriate way to prevent cross-contamination. This is because raw meat can potentially contain harmful bacteria that can spread to other foods if not stored properly. Keeping raw meat below ready-to-eat food prevents any juices or bacteria from dripping onto these foods. Options A and D can potentially lead to cross-contamination as the raw meat is not being stored separately from ready-to-eat food. Option B does not provide enough protection as it is not specific enough on how to store the raw meat.
