Answer:
Packaged foods ( e.g. muffins, cookies or candies ) are not considered as a potentially hazardous food .
Explanation:
A potentially hazardous food is that food ( natural or man made ) which supports the rapid and progressive growth of infectious and toxin - producing microorganism. These foods are typically foods having high protein content or carbohydrate content , have high moisture content or low acidity . Examples of potentially hazardous food includes meats, eggs , cooked beans or peas ,cut fruits and vegetables , cooked vegetables, cooked rice , raw seeds and sprouts , etc. So , packaged foods are not considered as hazardous as they are packaged and so are protected from microbes as they are not in contact of atmosphere . All the other foodstuff , even boiled food is also hazardous as they provide necessary conditions required by microbes to grow like moisture, etc.
