Informative, but Dry.

September 18, 2025

Going in, I was not expecting much from this course. The voice over seemed to be computer generated, and the course presentation was extremely sanitized and uninteresting. However, despite covering many topics I already knew, there was still a good amount of content I had no prior knowledge of beforehand, and I ended up learning a fair bit. If your student can get through the dry first impression this course gives off, and has the patience to trudge through some common knowledge early on, I believe they can learn a lot, and become more effective at preparing food safely.
