Ever wondered about the practice of parents trundling their mucous-filled, unwashed children round in the supermarket trolleys. It would make a nice study for someone to see how dirty supermarket trolleys are. When food handlers have to have high standards of hygiene it seems pointless if ones food is then placed on a surface that has had dirty shoes and other questionably grubby body parts recently placed thereon. Or should we now look at the organisms on a cell phone …or a hand bag?? How does one survive? One wonders.
