Toilets are cleaner than shopping trolleys

barneyrubble46

Yes believe it or not, your toilet is cleaner than a shopping trolley. Why, well look at the parents that pick up their kids and put them in the trolley, not in the seat part but the actual main part of the trolly. Now think about where those little feet have just been. Yep thats right, and then all that bacteria and dirt gets onto your food, that you pack then unpack and put in your cupboard/press and fridge. I have not made this up, this is a fact. I put a cardboard box or a plastic box in my trolley then put my food in it, then when I get home I wipe over what I can with a little hot water and disenfectant.

Isn't the food already in packaging though? Have you actually seen the toilets in some shopping centres? They're mank. I've been eating food a long time now, and thanks to a little biological function called an immune system I'm not dead ye

Do you know what the dirtiest thing in your house is? The hand gel dispenser, not the contents, the actual dispenser. You only ever reach for when you hands are encrusted with muck of some kind, and no one ever thinks of wiping it afterwards.

But we'll get arrested if we try and take a dump in a shopping trolly.

The slogan could be though: Don't spend a penny, spend a euro!

You haven't seen my jacks bowl recently then, it was many moons ago when it could be described as porcelain white.

Something that gets cleaned regulary, its cleaner than something that never gets cleaned.

Welcome to the 90s. What a time to be alive.

This is only true if you live in the 15th century. :mad:

Modern dispensers are fitted with proximity-sensors so you don't need to actually touch the dispenser for it to dispense the soap/detergent.

Get with the times, backwardsman :mad:

Look at it this way. You touch things with your hands and then touch the trolley. You don't go around touching things with your arse cheeks so they will obviously be cleaner than your hands. Of course a toilet will be cleaner. Have you ever seen someone cleaning a trolley?

It's the tap you cover with bacteria when you turn it on, then you dispense the hand soap hygienically, then undo the washing by touching the tap again.

We need those taps you can operate with your elbows that they have in scrub rooms.

I just went for a huge ****e. At least 10 pieces of good solid stool. What about trollies?

But you always wash your hands after touching it

'Less clean than' does not imply 'filthy'.

I wash the handwash bottles, you are totally right!

After what I just did in the toilet, they may have to reexamine their figures.

I clean my trolley before I return it!

I carry a flamethrower and use it on things like trollies, for hygiene an' shiz-nit. It's the only way to be certain-sure.

What I can't understand is bread that's sold without a wrapper imagine all the germs on that:eek:

Bacteria are everywhere, there's innumerable numbers of them inside you right now. The amount of bacteria that cause harm to healthy people is miniscule there's no need to go over the top with disinfectants. While disinfectants do have their uses, they can produce some fairly nasty by-products, they are designed to kill living organisms after all.

You really just have to laugh at people overreacting to PR driven hype about the health threats caused by bacteria by spraying everything in sight with carcinogenic chemicals.

A marketing strategy to frighten People into buying what is probably overpriced bleach.

The fact that we are all still here suggests otherwise

Innumerable indeed? In fact, if you subtract the water by mass, and the bacterial cells, most of you is not human at all.

It's like the Dettol marketing department have hi-jacked the thread.

I'd take my chances with the dirt in the shopping trolley.wiping it with disinfectant has to be worse.the body is much stronger for having the chance to develop immunity.my kids play in the mud,handle animals and push shopping trolleys.they are so much stronger and healthier than those in their classes who live in spotless,sterile houses,and who often have asthma,ear infections etc.

I just developed an immune system. Much easier.

Isn't all the antibacterial hand wash causing a rise in superbugs
