Transportation of Food must be: (3) 1. In covered containers 2. Completely wrapped 3. Packaged to protect them from contamination.

• A. In covered containers
• B. Completely wrapped
• C. Packaged to protect them from contamination
• D. In covered containers; completely wrapped; packaged to protect them from contamination

Answer: (D)

Protecting food during transport requires multiple barriers to contamination. Food must be moved in clean, covered containers to keep out dust, splash, and pests; items should be completely wrapped when necessary to prevent direct contact and leakage; and they should be packaged to provide an overall shield against contamination from handling and the environment. Using all three methods together ensures maximum protection, because each step covers different potential contamination routes. Relying on only one method leaves gaps—for example, a container might be closed but not wrapped, or packaging might protect from splash but not from direct contact. Therefore, the transported food should be in covered containers, completely wrapped, and packaged to protect it from contamination.
