    Surely if they used gloves, the dough would taste like latex?

    Funny that would spring to mind, you must be very accustomed to the taste of latex ha!

    OP don't EVER, EVER have sex..if you knew the sick shit that went on then you would be scarred for life if you think not-wearing gloves while food prepping is bad!!!

    As has been said before get the number of a good psychiatrist...you may have a mild form of OCD or MR!

    I was in Dominos with a friend tonight, usually never eat fast food as I'm allergic to eggs and some other foods so have to be careful. Anyway you could see where they were preparing the pizza and to my horror the guy was rolling the dough, spreading the toppings etc with his bare hands!! I asked my friend and he said that's the same in all dominos?? He could have anything on his hands! Wiped his nose, etc.

    Does anyone find this disgusting? And is this normal, like does it go on in apache, four star, etc also?

    Bubble Boy, is that you?

    Jeez, are you a bubble boy or something? Did you wear gloves to eat your pizza?

    Frankly you sound phobic.

    There's a theory behind this...

    Basically.. if the staff were to wear gloves they may be less inclined to wash their hands frequently...

    You've watched cooking shows on the tv right?

    Bare hands there too usually...

    There are more germ cells in your body than there are actual cells in your body.

    Once I found this out, I never worried about germs again. Eat nutritious food, sleep well, and wrap yourself up in colder weather and let your natural defenses take care of it all.

    Please don't go around with the notion that your mouth is sterile but for the pizza guy's hands.

    Have you ever gotten sick eating restaurant food? Packaged food? "Fresh" food from your supermarket (bread, salads, etc.)?

    All those could've been handled by bare hands. Chances are, while you may have been coincidentally sick once or twice before, overall your experience has been pretty much normal-- you feel just fine.

    Your body's used to different bacteria. It has a good immune system. Those germs don't matter, your body can handle them, so what's there to get worried about?

    Sounds like you're germophobic, people like that drive me mad.. they're often more sickly than the average population since they keep everything too sterile so their body cannot build natural defenses due to lack of exposure, so when they go out into the big bad dirty world they're far more likely to get sick. Kind of silly, don't you think?

    Embrace your immune system.

    I worked in the restaurant in Dunnes Stores, looked after the wok & pizza (I'm that elite).

    The management told me to where gloves whilst doing all this. The pizza oven there was an Artisan Fire oven (essentially like an open oven with a fire in it to bake the pizza). One time while getting a pizza out, the gloves started to melt on my hand.

    They were told to f*ck right off with their gloves policy after that.

    Food preperation places have a choice between wasking their hands more frequently (every 15 min or something) and wearing gloves. I was at a food safety thing and the guy was saying that washing hands was preferable to gloves as people tend to rarely change their gloves but will wash their hands more often.

    I worked in McDonalds for a summer 9 years ago (Wow that sounds like i'm old) and evrything was prepared with bare hands. Buns put onto toaster tray, burgers put on grill, lettuce, onion, tomato etc... put on my hand. The odd bun or burger may drop to the floor, if the manager isn't looking it is generally picked up quickly and put back on. The large barrel of salt for pre salting fries had dead flies in it, you just scooped around them.

    After seeing all of this, I still eat in fast food restaurants. As long as the meat is cooked and the food is in date then it's all good.

    Wow does nobody think we've gone a bit OTT with cleaniness and sanitation these days?? And people wonder why we have problems with superbugs and poor immune systems :rolleyes:

    It might kill harmful bacteria, but it doesn't get rid of anything like fingernails, snots, hair, sweat, or god knows what else is on their hands.

    If that's what you're worried about, what use are the gloves?

    If you knew all the details for everywhere you ate, you would never eat anywhere and most likely end up to be some sort of troll (the creature kind :P)!

    OP is being a sensitive sally.

    People's bare hands touch everything.

    The boy's hands touched the pizza.

    That €50 note in your wallet could have been in a prostitute's snatch a few weeks ago.

    Get over it.

    I see rubber gloves, I think proctologist. Have a nice think about that the next time you see someone preparing food with rubber gloves on.

    Pfft. Better his hands than his feet tbh. How do you expect he should spread the toppings? What do you use to prepare food in your house? I can just imagine the collection of gloves, tongs and plastic wrap all over the kitchen :D Priceless.

    Unclean. Unclean

    I don't mind germs, I like like having a healthy immune system. People that sanitise constantly are doing themselves more harm than good.

    shock horror

    human touches food with hands before putting it into a 400 degree hot oven and killing any germs he might have transmitted.

    EDIT: or do ya eat raw pizza nowadays ????

    There is a thing called washing your hands.
