Wash your hands!

[Buster]

OH MY GOSH! How crazy is that. They say you can get it from eating undercooked pork as well. Is that the same thing as trichinosis?

I have been told that this problem is very common in Cental American and Southern Mexico.

We have so many immigrants working in the fast food business today that it is kind of scary. They can unknowingly pass this problem on to others.

I couldn't pull the info up on my computer. A question.

Do the health departments even require a physical before hiring fast food and restaurant workers? When my grown children were in school, the newly hired food employees had to have a TB x-ray and skin test.

I once saw a fast food kitchen worker leave the bathroom w/o washing her hands. I reported her to the supervisor and was told that "we have a sink in the kitchen." How many surfaces did the woman touch before/if she reached the sink! I've even seen one woman use the bathroom with her apron on! The fast food restaurant sure got a message on the little card they leave on tables asking how did we do!

I sometimes notice feet in the bathroom stall next to mine and it is surprising how clean the person looks who doesn't wash her hands. You would never guess it in the chain bookstore that I frequent every week!

Makes me feel ill...I am fanatical about food prep areas and hand washing.....

I wash obsessively, but sometimes I don't wash in a public bathroom. I'd rather touch the nasty door to get out and then sanitize the daylights out of my hands.

I will turn on the water, wash, then get paper towels and use them to turn off the water and open the door. But, if the bathroom doesn't have towels (Only those dryers...) I can't do that. So I walk out and sanitize.

I am the same way.​

I've got to get my teenage stepson to watch that. He doesn't wash his hands, still at 17. Some teacher told him that washing hands too often is bad!

What idiot tells an adolescent boy not to wash his hands? We always have to demand that he wash his hands before putting the dishes away. If I see him handling clean dishes, I usually take them and put them in the dishwasher, 'coz I don't know where his hands have been and you can bet they haven't been washed, with soap.
I rather be a fanatic about washing my hands, than get sick with something so easily prevented. I keep sanitizers everywhere in order to make it easy to keep those hands clean. We also have a big box of disposable gloves. I don't generally don't approve of disposable stuff, but this is one of those times I make an exception.

Makes a person want to cook at home more.....where you KNOW the hands are washed first!
