THIS Is the Grossest Item You Touch at a Restaurant

Questionable Cleanliness

Ex-employees of the service industry were quick to point out that many places have strict daily cleaning policies, which include wiping down all menus with a disinfectant. However, others confessed that places they had worked in the past didn't bother with following those rules or didn't wipe down the menus efficiently.

What's more, even if the restaurant follows the code to a T, that still only means your menu is being cleaned once a day. By the time the waiter ever puts that menu in your hands, it could have been passed around to tons of other patrons earlier in the day, before it ever got to you!

All in all, while your menu is probably not carrying around days' worth of germs, we're still going to make it a habit to wash our hands after our order is in from here on out.
