What is one effective way for staff to prevent over-consumption of alcohol?

Serving drinks faster
Offering food options
Discounting the last drink
Encouraging continuous drinking

The correct answer is: Offering food options

Offering food options is an effective way for staff to prevent over-consumption of alcohol because food slows down the absorption of alcohol into the bloodstream. When individuals consume alcohol on an empty stomach, they may feel its effects more quickly, potentially leading to excessive drinking. By providing appetizers or meals, establishments can create an environment that promotes moderation, allowing patrons to enjoy their drinks while also filling their stomachs, which can help mitigate the impact of alcohol. In contrast, accelerating drink service, providing discounts on drinks, or encouraging continuous drinking do not promote responsible alcohol consumption and can lead to increased intoxication and associated risks.
