Question

true or false: food handler glove use is mandatory. true false

Explanation:

Food handler glove use is not always mandatory. There are situations where proper hand - washing can be an alternative. For example, in some small - scale food preparation where immediate handling of food is done after thorough handwashing and there is no significant risk of contamination from external sources (like in a home - based food business with strict hygiene practices), gloves may not be strictly required. However, in many commercial and high - risk food handling environments (such as in large restaurants, food processing plants), glove use is highly recommended or may be mandated by local health regulations to prevent the transfer of pathogens from hands to food. But the statement "Food handler glove use is mandatory" is an over - generalization as it doesn't account for all possible scenarios and alternative hygiene measures.

Answer:

False
