Traces of faeces have been found on every single McDonalds touchscreen swabbed in an investigation by metro.co.uk.
Samples were taken from the new machines that have been rolled out at restaurants across the country every one of them had coliforms.
Senior lecturer in microbiology at London Metropolitan University Dr Paul Matawele said: We were all surprised how much gut and faecal bacteria there was on the touchscreen machines. These cause the kind of infections that people pick up in hospitals.'
Unsuspecting diners choose their food on the touchscreens then head to the server to pick up their burgers more often than not without washing their hands.
A screen at one branch was found to have staphylococcus, a bacteria that can cause blood poisoning and toxic shock syndrome.
A McDonalds spokesman said: Our self-order screens are cleaned frequently throughout the day. All of our restaurants also provide facilities for customers to wash their hands before eating.

Just let me eat. Leave me be.
And they do have healthy choices.
MCDONALDS is THE BEST KEPT SOCIAL SECRET in town.
Send your kids there. They are cheaper than a mall.
The Kiosk touch free solution is to simple display verbal commands in a line of text. User simply verbalizes commands to order food.
I am sure somebody is working on it.
It is cleaner than touching a menu.
You have ‘solid’ proof that the illegals have made their way to Iowa.
BIG CITY POO
Big cities have more poo contamination.
Please keep you poo to yourself and out of suburbia.
Thanks.
I wear gloves a lot, and even use a pencil eraser on those despicable voting machines.
Washing hands only lasts for 20 minutes.
Keep washing or do not eat.
Bathroom hand dry air blowers now circulate poo throughout the bathroom.
Never thought of that but people are not clean and it’s a great reason to not use touch screens.
Although, it probably does give the immune system a good workout.
A lot of “immigrants” in Iowa, isn’t there?
At least there is in NW Iowa, where the extended family is.
You're not missing much. I can count on one hand the number of times I've stopped at one in the last several years, and usually out of convenience/necessity. Ever since they buckled under pressure and took beef tallow and 'pink slime' off their ingredient list, the food just isn't the same.
So I guess there are no south paw mooselimbs?
You’s still have the same hands preparing and packing your food. How many patrons touch the cash register screens?
And on any public touchscreen ATM’s even have an odor.
Sheldon: I had to sanitize my hands because the university replaced the paper towels in the rest rooms with hot air blowers.
Penny: I thought the blowers were more sanitary?
Leonard and Howard: Why? Dont!
Sheldon: Hot air blowers are incubators and spewers of bacteria and pestilence. Frankly it would be more hygienic if they just had a plague infested gibbon sneeze my hands dry.
The cure for that is to not eat at fast food restaurants; any of them!
McDonalds is your kind of place,
They serve you rattlesnakes,
French Fries between your toetoes,
Hamburgers up your nose
Last time I went there, they fried my underwear
McDonalds is your kind of place!
