Cross contamination is so much worse than people think it is.

Everything is pretty much contaminated all the time.

I'd still want the illusion of the workers trying to be sanitary by wearing gloves.

How about they actually are sanitary by washing their hands instead of relying on putting their dirty hands in gloves that they never clean?

[–] MystikIncarnate@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Have you met people? They're not sanitary.

They'll be even less if they don't feel their hands being dirty because they're wearing gloves.

Cross contamination, ever heard about it? If you touch your gloves with contaminated hands then the gives are contraindicated, if you touch the box with contaminated hands then anyone who touch the box to get gloves are contaminating they're gloves. The more shit you touch, the more you increase the odds of cross contamination, it's that simple.

You don't know what these gloves touched during manufacturing, that doesn't scare you? They're not sterile, says so on the box. Even if they were, the second the box gets opened sterilization goes out the window because it's not a controlled environment and everyone is using the same box.

Gloves in the food industry are there to keep your fluids to yourself if you hurt your hands, the only other reason to use them is because of people like you who wrongly believe they're more sanitary than just working with clean hands.

I know cross contamination very well.

I trust non-sterile gloves over supposedly "washed" hands, every day of the week.

The number of people that use the toilet without washing, or even rinsing their hands afterwards is insanely high. People are disgusting.

Simply put, I don't trust fast food gloves to be sterile, never said I did. I just think they're likely to be cleaner than the unwashed hands inside of them.

Yes, they're likely cross contaminated, but by the time I'm accepting the risk of having someone else prepare my next meal, i want to reduce the harm they can do to me as much as I can.

Cross contaminated gloves are going to be less harmful than the hands that contaminated them.

And these people contaminated their gloves when putting them on.

Cross contaminated is contaminated, simple as that.

Sorry buddy but I've got my certification in hygiene and sanitary conditions in a kitchen environment, my girlfriend does as well, she is also trained to give the course and is a dietician trained to work in healthcare. Those gloves are there for show to reassure people like you, that's it that's all.

[–] MystikIncarnate@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 month ago

Oh, I know it's all a show.

I know how badly they're usually contaminated.

Let me lie to myself.
