What should you use to label food?

  1. A permanent marker

  2. Food colorings

  3. A card, sign, or other labeling methods

  4. A label machine only

The correct answer is: A card, sign, or other labeling methods

While options A and D may seem like quick and easy solutions, using a permanent marker or label machine could result in inaccurate labeling or damage to the food packaging. Food colorings, while providing a creative option, may not be easily recognizable for all individuals or include important information such as allergen warnings or expiration dates. Therefore, using a card, sign, or other labeling methods allows for customization and precise labeling of food items.
