    Locally owned and operated retirement home that got new management after og owner retirement.

    They changed the logo to a cross when they changed all their old company practices to a more for profit approach. All during covid when they cut everything too.

    Hired on with the expectation of a 3 month raise. Lol no. First job and first lesson that if it’s not in writing it doesn’t exist.

    One time I found molded beans in bulk storage. Was instructed to scrape off the top layer and use the rest since truck wasn’t coming and we needed it.

    Hardies would routinely ship molded product. Options were pick around the refuse or have nothing. Sometimes a dishwasher or line cook would go to the store with a list when it was too bad.

    The actual secret? You can do a lot to food and still be ok. Honestly got me over my food pickyness. Don’t fuck with the danger zone and you’re good.

      If something has mold, specifically, then that whole food and anything else in the same package is bad, even if you can’t see the mold on other pieces. This is because mold is a microorganism and you only see it with your eyes when an extremely large amount collects.

        it depends on the food. you can’t really cut the mold off bread but you can definitely cut the mold off cheese.

        in a restaurant kitchen i think it should be tossed but at home some stuff can be worth saving.
