Moreover, check the appearance of the shipment. If the package is wet or dry, you should not consume it. Moreover, reject rotten food with a peculiar smell or color.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Odor\"><\/span>Odor<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you notice that a food delivery is not clean or the packaging is damaged, this should be a red flag to reject it. It is also important to separate food from non-food items. The temperature of food should not be above 40\u00b0F, as this is a danger zone.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Color\"><\/span>Color<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Food with the wrong color or smell should be rejected at the loading dock. This is especially true if it&#8217;s poultry. Fresh chicken is pale pink or white, while bad poultry is bluish white. It should also be at least 41 degrees Fahrenheit when delivered.<\/p>\n<p>Look for signs of pest damage, rottenness, or weird color or smell. In addition, reject any food that has been improperly stored. The package should also be free of pest damage or odor. If food is wet when it should be dry, it should also be rejected.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Moisture\"><\/span>Moisture<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The loading dock is an important step in the food delivery process. During this step, food is inspected, labelled, and recorded as received. Foods that are rotten or have an unusual color or smell should be rejected. Also, foods with visible insect or pest damage should be rejected. In addition, food with unusual color, smell, or texture should be rejected.<\/p>\n<p>Freshness of food is critical to the quality of finished products. If meat is not fresh and the packaging is discolored or moldy, it should be rejected. Meat should also be bright red, as any pale color means that it has been exposed to the air. It should also be at a temperature of at least 40 degrees Fahrenheit (5 degrees Celsius). If fish is solid and is not accompanied by a perishable packaging, it should also be rejected.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Dirty_delivery_vehicle\"><\/span>Dirty delivery vehicle<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>It is important to reject any shipment if the quality of the food is not good enough. Fresh materials are needed to create finished products, so low-quality or stale meat will not produce great-tasting dishes. If you see any of these signs, reject the shipment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Food that has been damaged by insects or has an unusual odor or appearance should be rejected at the loading dock.
