What should be done with products that are delivered damaged?

Refused
Accepted and distributor called
Given back to the salesman
Thrown away

The correct answer is: Refused

When products are delivered damaged, the appropriate action is to refuse the delivery. This ensures that the establishment maintains quality standards for the ingredients and products used in their culinary operations. Refusing damaged goods protects the integrity of the kitchen and prevents potential issues that could arise from using subpar or compromised ingredients. Accepting damaged items can lead to inconsistent product quality, which could affect food safety and customer satisfaction. By refusing the goods, the establishment can ensure they only work with items that meet their quality expectations and can report the issue to the supplier for resolution or replacement. This proactive approach helps maintain high professional standards in food service.
