It's all about the science.

Yes, buffet line serving utensils are nasty, just like the food in the average buffet. I tend to stay away from buffets. I would rather someone touch a nasty buffet serving utensil than touch the food.

I was really talking about non-restaurant gatherings with shared dishes. People need to use utensils (that have not been eaten from) or napkins rather than using their hands. I can rant about this all day. Gross.

^^seriously dislike this. Or when people, even accidently, dip residue from one condiment into another.

I hate mustard. If I see a speck of mustard in the ketchup bowl, I'm going raw with the dog! no ketchup. just straight dog and hot dog bun.
