What goes on a prep sticker?

• A. Your initials, your manager's initials, time, and date
• B. Only your initials
• C. Product name and price
• D. Date only

Answer: (A)

The prep sticker is about accountability and traceability in food prep. The best choice includes your initials, your manager's initials, time, and date. Your initials identify who did the prep, the manager’s initials verify supervision or approval, the time shows exactly when the prep occurred, and the date helps with rotation and knowing how long the item has been standing. This combination supports safety, freshness, and proper recordkeeping. Options that only include initials miss supervisory verification and timing, while including product name and price or date alone doesn’t provide the essential proof of who did the work and when it was checked.
