What are the three general classifications of the food service industry?

Answer 1

There are actually 4 classes of the food service industry. They are:

Class I - Serves prepackaged foods that do not have to be prepared, other than possibly heating and serving in the original package within 4 hours. Hot and/or cold beverages may also be served.

Class II - In addition to the above, commercially precooked Hot Dogs, kielbasa, and soup may be heated if transferred directly out of the original package and served within four (4) hours. Hot and/or cold beverages may also be served.

Class III: Has exposed, potentially hazardous foods that are prepared by hot processes and consumed by the public within four (4) hours of preparation.

Class IV: Same as Class III except the foods can be held longer than 4 hours before being consumed by the public.
