    Do Apache usually prepare pizzas without gloves on? Because the last time I was in there the guys weren't wearing any, I could clearly see them all working behind the counter when I went to pay

    Wearing gloves doesn't mean that they are hygienic, it just means that they have gloves on. I've been to plenty of places where the staff are wearing gloves and handling money or changing tasks without changing gloves. Much like Empty Pockets they will require staff to wash their hands when starting a new task.

    The cooking process would kill any bacteria anyway

    Wearing of gloves means **** and if anything it seems to be an excuse to do be less hygenic.

    You don’t need to wear gloves while handling pre cooked food like pizza toppings. what’s the point of wearing a glove anyway, I’ve seen women in shops making a roll with a glove on and then take money without removing the glove, you never know where the glove has been,so I would sooner the person in apache didn’t wear a glove and washed their hands constantly as advised by the health inspectors.
    How would you do that

    Washing the hands constantly,the hands would be fukked

    I have to wear gloves to save my hands

    Where is constant hand washing advised?

    With respect to the OP who highlighted the deal, shall we leave the "washing hands" debate behind?

    I think that we all agree with the need for product and food safety, but since Apache are a franchise, it is probably not correct to tar them all with the same brush.

    I'm sure that the poster raised the issue with their local store and this meant that the matter was resolved accordingly.

    a) This is a BA thread.
    b) This is not a handwashing/hygiene/food safety/any other topic thread
    c) back seat modding is a no no in every forum
    d) Cop on the lot of ye before I get a headache which makes my head sore

    This is a good deal but be aware that in several Apache stores they don't use pork but they do not tell you when ordering. So last night I ordered a ham and a pepperoni pizza on this offer. When I got home there was neither ham or pepperoni on the two pizza. Turns out they put highly processed turkey on them instead and don't inform the customers unless you go searching on the website.

    "Selected stores use turkey bacon as a substitute for pork bacon products. Ask in-store for details."

    That's fckng bizarre. I'll be firing off an email to the advertising authority.

    Apache can't just redefine the English language. Turkey is not bacon.

    If you're Halal, fine but why would you become a franchisee for a product that's heavily associated with pork-based toppings? What's next - vegan Apache?

    You’d think that the stores in question would have some signage to let you know. It wouldnt be hard :pac:

    Same as fresh cod in chippers. Its rarely Cod..

    Its a take a away pizza in fairness, event the 'pork" isn't a prime cut, its a mushed up reclaimed sinew fat and skin mix of slop.

    I appreciate this is the Bargain thread, so Ill make my point. €7.49 isn't a bargain for any sized bread disc covered in pure ****e.

    It's not the first , and definitely not the last promo campaign on a pizza/restaurant joint...
    That being said, it's interesting to see that the competition doesn't sleep : they're very active even on boards.ie (it's a online deal after all ) with subjects like using blue/white gloves by staff or the quality of the topings...

    I bet nobody asks the delivery guy if the staff used the gloves when rolling the dough/toppings , or if the pieces of *meat* are real pork/beef/chicken or a wild animal trapped/killed in a less painful manner...
    Can you sense the difference between duck and turkey on small pieces of heavily spiced meat ?
    Do you know from what region on this earth the large source of catering chicken comes from ? Or what they been fed to gain a few pounds?

    Although the ' frying/hot oil/cooking will kill the bacteria' is a semi urban-myth, you shouldn't look further for a cause of the food poisoning / bad tummy / winter bug /foot and mouth symptoms.

    Would i buy a frozen pizza, made 75% by an automated machinery system on a factory where health and safety can close them down if not followed?
    Would i buy frozen dough and chop my own cooked meats/ cheese / spices?
    Maybe. Maybe i just want a pizza with a personal touch of the 'master baker' and his crew...and a few whisky shots, ti kill the remaining bugs ( another myth trending )
