How many inches from the floor should food be stored?

At least 4 inches
At least 6 inches
At least 8 inches
At least 10 inches

The correct answer is: At least 6 inches

Food should be stored at least 6 inches from the floor to prevent contamination. This height allows for easy cleaning underneath the storage area and reduces the risk of pests gaining access to the food. Options A, C, and D are incorrect as they do not meet the minimum requirement of keeping food at least 6 inches above the floor.
