A foodborne illness can be caused by cross-contamination when :

a. Contaminated ingredients are discarded and not used
b. Foods does not touch contaminated surfaces right before being served
c. Foods are properly stored, cooked, handled and served
d. Dirty unwashed towels are used to clean food-contact surfaces

Answer 1

D.

Step-by-step explanation:

When bacteria or other microorganisms are unintentionally transferred from one object to another this is cross contamination. The most common example is the transfer of bacteria between raw and cooked food. This can be caused by a towel because it is most likely when a person cooks they touch the food (like chicken or other meat products that has salmonella or other illnesses) and then touches the towel.

Hope this helps!
