Place QA tag behind biscuit to signify the discard time
Any prepared biscuit sandwiches remaining after 20 minutes must be discarded into the waste container

The number on the QA tag represents the hands of a clock
Look at the time: Where is the big hand? Always round down to closest number on the clock.
Go forward 4 numbers- This will be the QA tag you place behind the biscuit sandwich
- Example: It is 9:02.
- Always round down to closest number on the clock. 9:00.
- 20 minutes later would be 9:20
- The big hand of the clock would be on the 4.
- Place a 4 QA tag behind the biscuit sandwich.
- The biscuit sandwich expires at 9:20 and will be wasted at this time
