Why 250 Questions Beats 880

Question dumps bury you in filler — five rewordings of the same fact, padding the count. Our bank is 250 items because every item earned its place: each maps to something the exam actually tests, carries a source citation to the FDA Food Code, and gets scheduled by the adaptive engine exactly when you're about to forget it. You don't need more questions. You need the right ones, at the right time, until they stick.

Recall Formats, Not Just Flashcards

Variety itself aids retention, and each format maps to a way the exam asks the question — watch real items from the free set in action.

Exam-Style MCQ

A line cook pulls chicken breasts off the grill at an internal temperature of 160°F and plates them. What is the food-safety problem?

ANone — 160°F is above the required temperature for poultry.
BPoultry must reach 165°F internally; 160°F is undercooked.
CPoultry must reach 155°F; 160°F overcooks it.
DChicken should be cooked to 145°F like other meats.

Why: Poultry requires a minimum internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) for <1 second. At 160°F it has not reached the required kill step and is undercooked.

🎯 ServSafe loves the 165 vs 155 vs 145 distinction — anchor poultry firmly at 165°F.

Recall Card

A worker handles raw chicken with gloves, then starts assembling salads without changing gloves or washing hands. What should have happened?

Remove gloves, wash hands, and put on new gloves before handling RTE salad.

🎯 A glove change always pairs with a handwash — 'just new gloves' answers are wrong.

After each card you rate how well you recalled it — the app brings the shaky ones back sooner and spaces out the ones you know. That's the spaced repetition.
