Perhaps I should edit posts rather than post repeatedly.

I went to lunch today to get my salad and po-ta-toe
(more fun to say it that way, like Gecko Sue used to...god she used to fuck with people who were annoying when they tripped "Ohmigod! You're a po-tay-toe...you only have eyes!" and make bug eyes at them. They often shut up and got buggy...god she roxor)
when I saw the old woman behind the counter with plastic gloves on reach into a small bowl of meat, pick some small pieces out, put them in her mouth with her gloved hand, and toss the bowl out. She then proceded to slice more meat from a carcass, and serve people food. Call me a dick, but I reported her to a manager - AND DIDN'T HAVE A FUCKING POTATO FOR LUNCH. I did have fries - I felt like things deep fried in liquid death seemed healthy (like I need an excuse to splurge on fries). I could feel bad about this poor woman who has to do food service at her age, but at the same time asking me to share spit with this woman is NOT reasonable.

Next time I see some food service worker with plastic gloves on I will not feel safe. We've all seen people wipe their noses with their gloved hand, but this was a whole new level. I sure hope most people don't wear their gloves to the bathroom!

Now I will think of this each time food is served to me via gloved hands...and SO WILL YOU mua ha ha! My evil plot to make you queasy has come to fruition at last! Thank you my anal-retentive dark lord! Mua ha ha

oh hey, that meat probably got sneezed on (or worse) by the butchers and underpaid slaughterhouse workers before it ever got into your line of sight... did you hear about the Perdue chicken factory workers who weren't allowed breaks so they peed right on the line? enjoy....

Oh you think that's restricted to meat!? Guess where migrant farm workers go to the bathroom when they pick produce? Guess how inclined they are to hygiene?

Anyway, I just wanted a damn POTATO :)
yes I have cheese with it, but that's not like veal now is it?

Huh? Yes they are washed, but they are still covered in dirt from who knows what source - washing helps but not 100%. Then this dirty woman hands you the thing she holds while she splits it with a knife, then squeezes to split down the middle. She then puts it on a plate with her grubby fingers. Yummy!

yech!

I really like the idea of photosynthesis! It's not the most efficient thing for mobile creatures...

I remember once an argument that trees are assholes. We are used to looking at the animal kingdom as a hell of hiding and killing, but it's a hellish competition amongst plants too! They fight other plants and each other for light and nutrients. Recently it's been discovered they release toxins to kill rivals! Eat plants - they're evil!

Not only that, potatoes grow in the GROUND, and there's nothing dirtier than DIRT!

And, well, it's a big chunk of muscle tissue anyway. If you can't stomach a little mucous, you have no business chewing on sinew...
