Which action is listed as part of the clean as you go example?

• A. Wipe salt and grease from boards
• B. Sweep parking lot
• C. Clean restrooms
• D. Restock napkins

Answer: (A)

Clean as you go means taking care of messes right at the work area as you’re moving through tasks, so surfaces stay sanitary and ready for the next step. Wiping salt and grease from boards fits this idea exactly because it targets the prep surfaces during service, prevents buildup, and keeps food handling safe and efficient. Doing this on the spot reduces the chance of slipping or cross-contamination and avoids a bigger cleanup later.

Sweeping the parking lot is more about exterior facility maintenance, not the immediate prep area. Cleaning restrooms is a separate housekeeping task that isn’t part of the on-the-spot cleaning used at the workstation. Restocking napkins is about supplies, not cleaning. So the action that reflects the clean as you go approach is wiping salt and grease from boards.
