What is the purpose of Safety Data Sheets? Why are these important when handling common food service chemicals? What information/components are generally included? How do Safety Data Sheets vary?
Greenwashing is a major problem. Companies will say they are using practices that benefit the environment while really not taking any steps to do so. An example is Terracycle - a company that is supposedly able to recycle non-recyclable plastics and by-products - but which went over a year without collecting products from any of their customers. How can consumers navigate the labels to determine if products are actually sustainable.
Which of the following statements is not true?
No food or drink, including water, is allowed in laboratory
It is okay to taste a chemical
Read and re-read labels on containers of chemicals before opening them
Dispose the chemical waste to appropriate waste container
