<p>So i've visited several fast food restaurants and i've gone inside to order once rather than the usual drive through. i also went to the same fast food place, but a different location to see how it was done, and it was the same. i guess the policy is binding on all locations.</p>
<p>mcdonalds and jack in the box: nasty.' I walk in to order, and as i see people do drive through, the people in the back are touching buns, meat, and cheese with bare hands. washed or unwashed, that is disgusting. </p>
<p>wendys: safe & clean. they were wearing light-weight, clear thin gloves when creating your burger. </p>
<p>I vouched to try to never order from mcdonalds or jack again because they work with their hands to make your food. God knows what they do back there before they make your buns!</p>
<p>anyway, macdonald tastes good, Wendys tastes so bad. Tried it like 5 times from different locations, still suck like *****. I’m sorry, but I’d have the cheaper, tastier one anyday. And so? a lot of chefs use their bare hands. So don’t go to restaurants just to be sure. And don’t your parents use bare hands to cook?</p>
<p>I work in a restaurant, a sit down “ribs and steak” kind of place, and the cooks typically use gloves in handling food, but seriously, people wouldn’t really want to eat our food if they knew how very non-sanitary the place is in other ways. </p>
<p>We clean off the tables with a watery “cleaning” solution that is, by the end of the day, a very murky brown or gray color. The servers will touch the food in arranging it, especially buns, desserts, fries, etc. and when they do prep work they don’t always wear gloves either. Our silverware is run through the dishwasher twice before being used again, but when people roll it in napkins they don’t wash their hands or use gloves, and sometimes we have to pick off little pieces of food that weren’t washed away. The plates and glasses are also handled without gloves. </p>
<p>I know that doesn’t sound really bad, but when you see the kind of stuff we do without thinking, you would rethink eating in restaurants. Even the little things like the lemons in people’s waters have been touched by a few dozen hands and have been sitting out uncovered for a few hours. I sort of feel bad for the people who eat there, but I doubt other restaurants are really that different.</p>
<p>i worked at mcdonalds for about a year. if you dropped a meat patty on the floor they told you to pick it back up and put it on the grill. also the egg mcmuffin eggs come out of a tube (like the pillsbury biscuits) and you cut them with a knife. if you have seen clerks 2 you know exactly wut im talkin about</p>
<p>I’m actually not that bothered with the dropping meat on the floor and cooking it because at LEAST it’s cooked. What really grosses me out is when the workers touch raw meat with their hands and then go and touch the rolls. I’m shocked the one’s in my area haven’t been closed down by the board of health yet.</p>
<p>i heard of a person dying because of eating a burger that wasn’t fully cooked from macdonalds. </p>
<p>I still love MD and eat there almost everyday. </p>
<p>and wow jman i’m the exact opposite of you. I never eat at home. Ever since my mom lied to me and tried to make me eat some fish, I never trusted her cooking.</p>
<p>How about In and Out? It tastes pretty good. It’s almost universal that chain restaurants are not clean but people still want to eat there cuz they don’t want to cook.</p>
<p>In N Out is good. But um McD’s is disgusting. And if I drop food on the floor, I don’t care if I’m going to cook it, sterilize it, pasteurize it, whatever, one thing I’m NEVER going to do is eat it. It goes in the trash. Period, case closed. I don’t care if the floor is sterilized with bleach every minute or thirty seconds. Especially with meats. Don’t these establishments know anything about food safety? People walk around on that floor with, like, dirty shoes!!! God knows what’s on people’s shoes. I even toss what falls off the cutting board. </p>
