September 15, 2025

This was a fine course and gave me the information I needed to pass the exam. However, there were quite a few typos throughout and the voice was clearly AI and robotic. It wasn’t very engaging and I wish there had been more “practice questions” after each section.

September 15, 2025

First of all, I can’t stand the automated voice. with thousands of people paying almost 10 dollars per card, you can pay a voice actor to do your course. Do not participate in the choking out of talented jobs.

Secondly, what’s with the spelling and grammar errors? I regret supporting this course but unfortunately I already have so you can keep my money.

Talked about the things I need to know about the food establishment

May 14, 2025

It’s saying we should all change gloves every 4 hours between tasks. After doing dirty jobs with the gloves on or if the glove rips, we all wash our hands first and then put on new gloves. Not only that, I knew that chicken is supposed to be cooked at a higher temperature then beef, steak, and salmon. temperature danger zone, food cools down for more than 4 hours. Reheating is not gonna do ANYTHING. A crumb on the floor brings bugs and when there’s bugs, the foods are being contaminated again and it’s biological hazard. When we wash hands 20, turn off the faucet with your elbow or turn off the faucet with the paper towel and then air dry and use your feet to kick open the push door or use the paper towel to pull the door open. Chicken, beef, fish, and salmon should be WAY WAY below the ready to eat foods. COMPLETELY AT THE BOTTOM. Food should be stored 6 in off the ground. Everything in this world have germs, Your phone has germs, Cash has germs, anything. I can’t describe which thing has the most germs. We can do all to prevent it from spreading. No matter how delicious it looks, if you eat food from the floor, it’s biological hazard. So I learned 65% of it
