When following your standard operating procedure and storing items in bulk containers for use, you must label the container with the common name of the food item and the label must be placed on the container. When taking items from their original container, it is important to label them again in the packaging that they will be stored in so they are easily identifiable. This helps to avoid confusion and contamination between products.
