Stop obsessing about things you can't control and embrace the germs. They're all around you. They are the training ground for your immune system. You don't want a pussy immune system, do you?
This.
And don't go to the barffet, piggy.

just bring some hand sanitizer in a squeeze bottle you huge pussy. Get food like a normal human being and then disinfect your hands before eating
i heard that you can get aids from a buffet
so i never go to them anymore
No, the aids virus cannot live outside the body like a cold or flu virus that can, unless your exchanging bodily fluids with someone at the buffet you won't get aids from eating there.
Spit won't do it. You literally would need to take fresh blood and apply it to an open wound to even have a chance of contracting it.Which is why he doesn't do buffets.
I guess the feasible thing to do is to wash my hands everytime after I get the food but before I eat. That means I probably have to wash my hands like 9 or 10 times.
:hmm: He posted yesterday but hasn't updated the thread. I think its safe to assume he died from a disease contracted at the buffet
I have to go to a buffet today, how do I avoid getting other people's germs?
I realize the utensils like the tongs are pretty gross because everyone touches them. Their hands could have been touching their mouth, nose, face, or privates. I thought about holding the tongs with a napkin but that would look too weird.
But that makes too much sense for the OP to understand.just bring some hand sanitizer in a squeeze bottle you huge pussy. Get food like a normal human being and then disinfect your hands before eating

We were on a Celebrity Cruise last month and they were taking precautions due to norovirus. The buffets were no longer self-serve, no salt and pepper shakers on the table, and menus were a fresh piece of paper for each person. Yes, each one of those items can contract things to make you sick, its not just the tongs.
The tongs are a problem on a buffet, but a bigger problem than the tongs are the kids. Parents let their children go off-leash wild when at a buffet and the kids put their dirty little hands in the food without tongs. Old people are also very bad as they dont understand germs and will just stick their fingers in things to sample taste things while going through the buffet.
Just so you know, Celebrity requires 5 days without anyone getting GI (Gastrointestinal) sick before it can be taken off of Code Red alert. Keep in mind that this happens even with mandatory Purell hand washing (for everyone) before entering the dining room.
During Code Red, Celebrity requires extra staff at the buffet to serve people. Salt and Pepper are individual packets, menus are one time use pieces of paper. The servers wear gloves and masks. Out of curiosity, when a server handed me an extra fork, I (accidently/purposely) touched her glove. She immediately removed the glove and put on a new one. I was impressed.
Having seen a few of the backrooms of some local buffets (such as Golden Corral), its a wonder there are not more outbreaks of sickness. The health inspector cannot be everywhere and we all know many of these inspectors are just bribe machines.
My suggestion for going to a local buffet is to be first. If the buffet opens at 11AM, be there at 10:55 AM to be first in the door. The food will be freshest, all the tongs will be clean and you will have the full selection of food before they run out of something.
Remember, hurry and grab all the food you want and then sit back and watch the kids put their booger crusted hands into the food.
