QUESTION 12
Consider the following statements:
FOOD TRUCKS – A FOOD SAFETY CONCERN
FOOD TRUCKS – A MODERN, CONVENIENT AND HEALTHY WAY TO SERVE FOOD
Using the Source material, A–D provided below as well as your own knowledge,
discuss your opinion on the above statements in the form of a 1–1½ page essay.
To answer the question, you are expected to:
• Present an argument that convincingly supports your viewpoint.
• Examine the source material carefully and use the information in the sources to
best develop your argument.
• Integrate your own knowledge and experiences into your argument.
SOURCE A FOOD TRUCK FOOD SAFETY
According to market research firm IBISWorld, the U.S. has over 4,000 food trucks
roaming its streets, with annual revenue growth at 7,9 percent between 2011 and 2016.
This obviously makes the venture attractive to many entrepreneurs who see the
potential for a small investment to reap a large reward.
"There is already an awareness and recognition that food trucks aren't going away and
that they need to be held to the same food safety standards as other restaurants,"
explains Erin DiCaprio, "The same retail food code that applies to the brick and mortar
restaurants also apply to food trucks."
In itself, that code could be quite challenging to adhere to for vendors; which just
screams danger for food safety. Dr DiCaprio explains the challenge for vendors lies in the
difficulty to guarantee they are equipped with the proper facilities to ensure cleaning
and sanitization, plumbing and hand hygiene, and refrigeration and pest control.

SOURCE B HOW SAFE ARE FOOD TRUCKS?
BUTLER COUNTY — The surge in popularity of food trucks has added a new challenge for
health inspectors who must evaluate the safety of every food-service operation whether
it has four wheels or a front door. Local food trucks are licensed every year, but their
initial inspection takes place when the mobile unit is not serving any food. Once the
trucks go on the road, health inspectors must rely on spot inspections to evaluate how
closely food-handling codes are followed. But the review also found that food trucks
operate with a different set of rules than traditional restaurants, and it's more difficult
for diners to monitor inspection results to see whether a truck has encountered
problems.
Restaurant and food truck inspections are one line of defence against the types of food-
borne illnesses that, according to the Centres for Disease Control and Prevention, sicken
about one in six Americans each year. The CDC estimates that 48 million people get sick,
128 000 are hospitalised and 3 000 die each year of food-borne illnesses.
Health inspectors enforce the Ohio Uniform Food Safety Code at all food-service
operations open to the public with an eye toward preventing such outbreaks. They test
refrigeration equipment to ensure cold foods are remaining cold enough and food
holding areas to make sure cooked foods are kept at a temperature to thwart bacteria
growth that could lead to or exacerbate food-borne illnesses. They make sure hot water
is available for washing hands and dishes and a sufficient concentration of sanitizer is on
hand to kill germs during dishwashing.

SOURCE C NEW STUDY SHOWS FOOD TRUCKS ARE SAFER
THAN RESTAURANTS
Here's some great news for the dying food truck industry: A new study shows that in
comparison to restaurants, food trucks are often a safer place to eat. A report by the
Institute of Justice concluded that food trucks and carts tend to receive less health and
safety violations than restaurants do.
This is good news for food truck owners who have been facing many challenges thanks
to intense restrictions — many of which are food-safety based — from policy makers.
