Which of the following is the most suitable course of action?
Show the answer and explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The problem is one shop using a banned colour. Stopping the sale of those sweets and seizing the colour removes the risk to buyers at once.
Telling everyone to give up sweets, or closing every shop in the state, is far wider than the problem found.
A notice while sales continue leaves the unsafe sweets on sale, so it does not solve the problem.
Worth noting
The correct course sounds strict, and the notice sounds mild. But the mild course fails to remove the danger, and the strict one is limited to the shop at fault.
