NO. TONGS. :eek:

I went to the cafeteria at work this morning to get breakfast, and they had NO. TONGS. :eek: for the bagels, muffins, scones, etc. Then I realized that I left my travel TONGS. :eek: in the UV-disinfecting carrying case at home. :eek:

The cafeteria staff do a great job keeping things sanitary, so I actually was confident that TONGS. :eek: they would eventually bring out would be fit for use. However, that wouldn't solve my problem. :eek: How do I know whether a slob had already picked through the scones with their bare hands to find the “right one”? Oh dear. No scone for me this morning. :(

Once my violent nausea passed, I got oatmeal for breakfast. Yes, they had a LADLE. :eek: to serve it. Oatmeal with banana and a dash of cinnamon. :eek:

I am hopeful that the day will get better. Wait. Who am I kidding? :(
 
Bring your own tongs, it works for me all the time. I have my own plates, forks, knives, and spoons.

Of course, you’re right. As noted above, I left my travel TONGS. :eek: at home. I’m really off my game today. :(
 
Does the spit from the scone digger in the oatmeal get stirred in by the ladle, or are there natural convective forces that do it automatically?

Even if they did have tongs, how do you know the guy using the clean tongs in front of you didn't go #2 and "forget" to wash his hands prior to touching them? Granted, the business end of the tong may be clean. Except usually tongs are hung or set down on something and thus the "clean" part may touch something that was touched by the "unclean" part, so that may not even be a safe bet. But even if the food wasn't touched directly by contamination, you have some on the tong-grabbing hand and will only avoid cross-contamination if you avoid touching your hands or wash them after using the tongs but prior to eating. Not usually convenient. I had pretty severe OCD as a child - almost crippling fear of germs. I'm still big on hand washing and I notice and am bothered by things that most probably miss but I've realized that there's likely to be some exposure and you have to rely on your immune system.

How would you know some slob would use tongs even when provided?

Sorry to hear this, :eek:Bob. You must really hate us today. :eek:
 
You know, having your own tongs only works if everybody has their own tongs.

Relax you have no idea what the baker shot into your scones. Enjoy your food and drink bourbon before bed.
 
Bring your own home made scones (made with self ground wheat) and coffee. But eat them in the cafeteria.
