You can just as easily get sick from farm laborers harvesting the crop & not washing their hands after using the restroom.

Well, not quite! People KNOW that they aren't cleaning the vegetables, etc... THAT is why one of the first things you are supposed to do with carrots, onions, etc... before you slice them, etc... is WASH them! It is ALSO why they are supposed to be kept COLD!

Most packaged produce sold in the US IS washed by the supplier BEFORE being sold to the public.

How much dirt do you see in your local grocery store produce section (not much/any)?

Washing food isn't an end all solution for eliminating diseases. Personal hygiene for farm workers in the fields goes a long way. You ever wonder (who hasn't, right?) where a guy drops a deuce while harvesting the back 40? Now you know.

Yes, a Lawyer defending someone who is clearly guilty, is pretty disguising.

Even worse, trying to reduce his sentence or overturn it, because he overdosed on drugs before the knife frenzy.

Let's hope that Doc, got the October 21, 2015 date right?

You do realize the chance of getting salmonella from the sandwich pales in comparison to your chance of getting hit by a red truck on your way to the sandwich shop, right?

While I do love me some raw onions, I would be inclined to not argue with a shop that tells me flat out that their health policies are inconsistent with their ability to serve them to me. That conversation would feel a bit like a dodged bullet to me.

There are other sandwich shops out there. Maybe you can find one that handles their raw onions more to your liking?

Agreed. To go a step further, any restaurant that tells me that some of their food might not be sanitary is actually telling me that all of their food might not be sanitary.

Exactly.

Years ago Denver, CO required all restaurant workers to get a Food Handlers Card from
the Health department - and a tetanus shot. You had to pass a test to get the card. I guess the program
was dropped because of budget. I had a card because I worked in restaurants. I don't drink from
unwrapped straws and cringe when I see unsafe food handling such as servers handing me a glass
by holding the top of the glass. (Fingers are supposed to be at least two inches away from the rim
of the glass.)

Even Subway has these things called gloves. The one in my town, and it is monitored by camera,
requires the employees to wash their hands a lot, wear the plastic gloves while making the sandwiches,
discard the gloves before handling the cash, and then put on new gloves for the next round of sandwiches.

Okay Steve. This is Sal the linguist talking to you. Please take a mental step outside of your linguistically juxtaposed mental state of technological geniusitude into the realms of normal conversational structure and do some free association - I know you've heard of it..............think now of all the different things that can come to mind with the word "submarine". You are old enough to get this one. Think back to when the average guy had long hair, bell bottom jeans and Nehru shirts. What comes to mind then when I say "Yellow Submarine". When the right association comes up - you'll get my nonsensical joking.
