Nuts in the shell, whole raw fruits and vegetables that are intended for hulling, peeling or washing by the consumer before consumption are not required to have protective devices when displayed. A food dispensing utensil must be available for each container displayed as a consumer self-service unit such as a buffet or salad bar. These utensils must be stored in the food product with the handle extended out.

LEFTOVER FOODS
