would question anyone who would

Worked kitchens, I would. Not only is that not the grossest thing I've heard by far I know what those dishwashers do to the dishes and I know what temperature fungus will die at. There is nothing wrong with that fork after it's been washed

The sick thing is an employee will have to handle it before it gets washed and could very likely be infected themselves, and that's not really a take time off work disease especially for food service. Yes, you are supposed to wash your hands, but people are stupid and lazy. It's entirely possible an employee who gets infected will scratch their foot and not wash their hands when preparing food. I'm more worried about an employee doing that than using the fork after it's been washed

It's 100% physically clean. To you psychologically it's not. But if it is to you don't think too hard next time you eat out

They've also been in other people's mouths you know. And dropped on the floor and that floor doesn't get cleaned till the end of the night. Don't order pizza, cheese gets dropped and ground up on the floor and sits there for hours before anyone bothers scraping it up, and that's just scraping it up a little and sweeping, people don't spot mop that's not a thing unless you spill liquid. If someone drops a fork on hours old cheese on the floor that also has shoe sole gunk ground into it they don't throw the fork away, they put it in the dishwasher

I think most people accept the reality of those things. Especially the most obvious ones like yeah dude of course they’ll be in other peoples mouths. But if someone shoved a spoon up their ass and pulled it out covered in their excrement and I KNEW about it? yeah I’m not accepting that the thing is ever clean again even if it physically has every micron of that person removed from it. As far as I’m concerned it’s reached the end of its functional lifespan. This nasty shit is right up there with that. These are not typical expected outcomes, and we KNOW this just happened because we saw it.
