Where must you store chemicals such as cleaners and sanitizers?

  1. Near the food storage area

  2. Away from any food or clean equipment and utensils

  3. In the dining area

  4. On the kitchen counter

The correct answer is: Away from any food or clean equipment and utensils

Chemicals such as cleaners and sanitizers can be hazardous if they come into contact with food or clean equipment and utensils. Storing them away from these areas reduces the risk of contamination. Options A and C are incorrect as they suggest storing chemicals near or in the dining area, which could potentially lead to accidental ingestion by customers. Option D is incorrect as storing chemicals on the kitchen counter could easily lead to spills and cross-contamination of food items.
