Your vessel is required to have a slop chest. Which of the following articles is NOT required by law to be carried in the slop chest?

Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation

Correct Answer: Option B — Candy

Title 46 USC 11103 mandates that a vessel's slop chest contain specific items for the crew's health and comfort, including foul weather clothing, blankets, and tobacco products. Candy is not a legally required item, making it the correct exception.
