​To avoid cross-contamination of foods:

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Keeping a separate cutting board for raw meats helps prevent cross-contamination with other foods, reducing the risk of foodborne illness. Choices B and E both involve placing raw and cooked foods in the same area or on the same plate, which can lead to cross-contamination. Choice C is partially correct, as cooked foods should not be stored next to raw foods, but it is important to note that they should also not be stored on the same shelf without proper separation or labeling. Choice D is incorrect, as thawing raw meats in the refrigerator is a safe and recommended method of thawing.
