This question gauges the proper behavior on food safety and handling practice. And it specifies five behaviors in context:<br /><br />1. Smoking in a safe corner of kitchen so that food is safe: Even smoking in a "safe corner" of a kitchen promotes cross-contamination and exposure to unhealthy substances. It goes against safe food handling standards.<br /><br />2. Label food properly and store in designated places: This is clear and safe practice because it helps in avoiding unnecessary packaging error, cross-contaminations, and aiding healthy circulation of food since foods are kept at the designated storage.<br /><br />3. Avoid chewing gum in the kitchen: It minimizes the risk of dropping gum into the food, preventing contamination.<br /><br />4. Taste food by taking small quantity in a separate dish: Tasting food from a separate dish prevents cross-contamination between your saliva and the food i.e., lowers risk of foodborne illnesses related to poor food safety practices such as direct tasting.<br /><br />5. Snack very carefully while working with food: Even though one needs to handle it carefully but still it involves risks. Hand contact with mouth and food may result in cross-contamination.
