What should be done with extra ingredients not used in a shake?

When it comes to handling extra ingredients that are not used in a shake, disposing of them is the appropriate course of action. This ensures that food safety and hygiene standards are maintained within the establishment.

Unused ingredients, particularly those that are perishable or open to contamination, should not be stored for future use because it can lead to spoilage or health risks. Additionally, giving unused ingredients to customers could pose liability issues and does not comply with food safety regulations.

Using extra ingredients in the next order may also compromise quality and freshness, as they were not originally intended for that specific shake. Therefore, disposing of any unused ingredients properly aligns with best practices in food safety and service efficiency.
