There's a rule against that, yeah, but it's easy to get around the rules. All he needs to do is get one of his colleagues to scratch it for him.

Now everyone stand in a circle with a hand down your neighbors pants.

Spice up that food with some yummy tape worm eggs. 🌶️

Now I know how they make the Pintos N Cheese.

I, too, am a fan of the brain worms taking over my body.

If it works for a Presidential candidate then it works for meeeee!

Have you ever wondered what makes special sauce so special?

[–] reverendz@lemmy.ml 33 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I worked a couple fast food jobs in college. Trust me when I say, you shouldn’t eat fast food.

There was an incident with the cheese sauce when I worked at Arby’s. I have not had any processed cheese sauce from any restaurant since.

I have a feeling I'm going to regret asking, but what kind of "incident"?

[–] reverendz@lemmy.ml 41 points 1 year ago (1 children)

A pimply, greasy, meth smoking teen jerked off into my the cheese sauce. Or at least bragged about it to one of the co-workers.

Needless to say we had to dump the batch. As if they wasn’t bad enough, when we dumped it, the bottom was caked in some kind of disgusting mold. It had probably been weeks or months since it had been emptied or cleaned

[–] Rocketpoweredgorilla@lemmy.ca 22 points 1 year ago

Yup, I just knew I was going to regret asking...

A few weeks ago I stopped at a mcdonalds and caught what looked like the manager packing burgers with his bare hands. Like, grabbing the patty, bun, lettuce, everything without gloves. I tried to take a picture but he saw me staring and put some gloves on.

[–] MadBob@feddit.nl 30 points 1 year ago (4 children)

Gloves in a kitchen is just an illusion of hygiene. The gloves can be dirty and hands can be washed while gloves can't. So what you've actually done is pressured a hapless manager into following an arbitrary rule and I don't think that's very nice of you.

[–] Landless2029@lemmy.world 20 points 1 year ago (6 children)

100% this.

I've seen shops where workers are handling food and then working the register all with the same gloves on.

Then there's this Korean spot I go to for fried chicken. They process payment and then put on fresh gloves right next to the register. Not making a show of it. Just workflow. Then they go handle/pack food and discard gloves after handing your order over.

Blew my mind.

That's why we wouldn't let undergrads wear gloves until the later years where they use toxic material. Better one kid gets a drop of acid on their hand than them spreading it everywhere.

[–] Kit@lemmy.blahaj.zone 8 points 1 year ago (4 children)

Isn't it normal for food service workers to just wash their hands rather than wear gloves? I don't think I've ever seen gloves at a fast food place.

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 5 points 1 year ago

They're supposed to wash their hands and wear gloves. And, at least at the ones I work at, there are boxes of gloves at nearly every station so there's no excuse to not have any on.

[–] pixeltree@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 1 year ago

It's normal in restaurants that aren't fast food

[–] bitwolf@lemmy.one 4 points 1 year ago

No its not normal. And it was an easy way to get fired at the restaurants I worked. Zero tolerance rules on food safety.

[–] droans@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I don't think there's a single state in the US that allows you to make food without gloves.

The only exception I've seen is when you're dealing with the ingredients before they've been cooked, like with pizzas.

It's part of the beef seasoning.

I don't get it. What's the reference?

Burger King foot lettuce

There's that taco bell brand ground beef.
