I thought the training was well put together
FoodSafe Pal did a great job of putting the training together. I learned some valuable information. One thing I would like to know is which questions I missed on the final test.
Response from FoodSafePal®
Thank you for the 5 stars! We’d love to be able to show which questions were missed as well, but because the exam is required for employment or to operate a food business in many areas, we have to protect the security of the exam and cannot disclose specific questions or answers. Thank you for understanding, and congratulations on earning your food handlers card!
