    I’m not trying to touch a poorly laminated menu with the last guys spilled salsa on it that’s been wiped “clean” by the hostess with a rag in some bucket of water that’s been sitting there for god knows how long. Minutes before I touch my food.

      Nah you’ll just touch the table with the last guys spilled salsa on it that’s been wiped “clean” in the same way

        Why the fuck would I touch the table with my fingertips? Am I some kind of sicko in this scenario? Do you think people sit down and just scrape their fingertips across the table like some cult ritual before they eat.

      If they’re following food safety laws, that bucket of water is likely bleach water or a similarly potent sanitizing agent…

      If it were plain water, do you think they’d go through the effort to make a separate bucket of it? Also, if they’re not rinsing off crud before putting the rag back in the bucket, they’re doing it wrong.

        Ok cool I’ll make sure the 16 year old girl doing her first job ever knows all about food safety laws. Restaurant operators are so famous for following food safety laws. Thanks for the big tip my guy.
