My stab at it: Food in a container that is not fully enclosed or covered

Hi Susan,

 

I see quite a lot of references to 'open food' or 'open product'.

 

BRC OPEN PRODUCT AREAS
Wherever ingredients, intermediates or finished products are not protected from the factory environment there is a potential risk of product contamination by foreign bodies, allergenic material or micro-organisms in the environment

 

Kind regards,

 

Tony
