If your menu contains raw or undercooked TCS foods, what should you do?

• A. Note that on the menu
• B. Remove from the menu
• C. Serve them as standard
• D. Offer only to adults

Answer: (A)

When a menu includes raw or undercooked TCS foods, you must provide a clear notice on the menu about the potential risk. This warning helps guests make informed choices and often satisfies consumer advisory requirements, ensuring anyone who orders these items understands they are consuming foods that may not be fully cooked. It protects diners who are more vulnerable and reduces liability for the operation. Serving them without any notice would be unsafe, and removing the items entirely is a separate management decision, not the standard requirement when such foods remain on the menu. The advisory should be visible to all customers so they can decide accordingly.
