What item must customers take each time they return to a self-service area for more food?

  1. Utensil

  2. Napkin

  3. A clean plate

  4. Tray liner

The correct answer is: A clean plate

Customers must take a clean plate each time they return to a self-service area for more food to help maintain proper food safety and hygiene standards. Using a clean plate helps prevent cross-contamination and the spread of bacteria from one food item to another. It is important that customers do not reuse dirty plates as it can lead to foodborne illnesses. Therefore, it is crucial for customers to take a clean plate each time they go back for more food.
