Dear Random DISer:

[morethananyonex]

You posted in a thread once about how every time someone doesn't wash a piece of fruit before eating, all you think about is the person who picked the fruit scratching themselves in "certain areas" and then touching the fruit. Thanks to you, I now think of this every time I wash a piece of fruit to eat.

Thanks again!

I think about stuff like this when I touch dollar bills. Creeps me out

I'm a nurse. There's nothing on a piece of fruit or a dollar bill that I have not been exposed to 1 million or more times at work and I am not dead yet.

I do not worry at all about such things.

I work at Walt Disney World. I dread to think what I come into contact with on a daily basis, and I'm never sick.

I don't worry either!

There would be NO longevity if people dropped dead from these things.

It's not that it worries me, it's just gross to think about and happens literally every time I eat an apple after reading that one post haha.

I'll add my to Robin's. There are germs everywhere, but you can take normal precautions and survive them. Besides if you stress over stuff like this, how you gonna have time to worry about the really big things in life
like drinking milk a day after the expiration date?

Hey now, no one said anything about worrying. Someone else's crotch all over your fruit is just not the most pleasant thought to have appearing in your head over and over .

 

[stepmommyof1]

Yeah...I don't remember who said that but I don't think I'll ever forget it. Lol it pops into my head every time I eat a piece of fruit too.
And I eat a lot of fruit... *sigh*

The people that worry about this stuff and try to clean everything in the world, are the ones that are always sick. No I don't worry either. My Mom always said, you have to eat a peck of dirt before you die.

DH & I are hardly ever sick.

I'll admit-I don't wash my lemons.

BUT, there was a thread once about a man wearing scrubs at the restaurant. I have seen at least 3 people wearing scrubs sine then and it sorts irks me.....thanks to THAT diser!

Scraching, that is the least of it. MY big thing is my sincere doubt that all the foreign countries that export our produce have sanitary restroom facilities for the workers out in the fields picking the fruit & veggies. Where do you think it's happening and do you really think they have Purell or a sink? I'm thinking that's gotta be a no so everything that comes into this house gets a nice long rinse in clean water. Ewwww, I try really hard not to think about it but ewwww, no thanks to a nice salad with a side of e-coli bleeechhhh.

Ever since I found out that the bacteria living in your mouth causes decay by pooping acid on your teeth, I've stopped worrying so much.

Good grief, where are people carrying their fruit?!!
