Question

Gabe fries chicken at Country Boy Restaurant. Gabe wears gloves as he preps the raw chicken in flour. Today during the lunch rush, you tell him to fill chicken orders for impatient customers. Gabe immediately begins putting cooked chicken in boxes and on plates. What are the hazards created by Gabe's actions, and what action should you take?

Answer 1

Answer:

Even though Gabe's hand are covered in gloves, the fact that he has touched raw chicken and then used the same gloves to touch cooked chicken will definitely lead to cross-contamination, a process of bacteria or other micro-organism transferring from one object to another.

I will immediately stop Gabe from serving the chicken, and then request the patience of the customer, as our goal is to ensure that we provide customers with the best possible meal, without any form of contamination.
