    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?

          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.
