Which items are described as single-service and single-use articles?

• A. Disposable items used once
• B. Single-service and single-use articles
• C. Reusable glassware
• D. Bulk groceries

Answer: (B)

Single-service and single-use articles are items that are intended to be used one time and then discarded to prevent cross-contamination and simplify sanitation. This category includes disposable plates, cups, utensils, napkins, and takeout containers—things you don’t wash and reuse.

The exact term “single-service and single-use articles” matches this concept, so it’s the best answer. Reusable glassware is designed for multiple uses and must be cleaned and sanitized between uses. Bulk groceries are ingredients for preparing food, not serviceware. Describing the idea as “disposable items used once” conveys the same concept but doesn’t use the formal terminology used in sanitation guidelines.
