Dunkin’ Donuts worker caught washing feet in kitchen of chain’s Staten Island Ferry location, prompting health probe

Here’s some revolting ‘sole’ food.

A Dunkin’ employee was filmed washing his feet at a kitchen sink at the chain’s location aboard a Staten Island Ferry — prompting a city Health Department investigation, The Post has learned.

An eyewitness spotted the employee lifting his tootsies and using sink water to wash his feet behind the counter and immediately began filming the stomach-churning scene, calling it “disgusting.”

The footage — posted to TikTok Aug. 11 before it quickly spread across other social media platforms — shows the worker standing in front of the sink on what appears to be an Islamic prayer rug as he suds up his feet.

The eyewitness wasn’t the only one who thought the guy had a donut-sized hole in his head.

“Would you like feet with your doughnut?” one disgusted commenter asked.

Another joked, “Is he on feet finder?”

And a third quipped, “Who needs a foot spa when you’ve got Dunkin’ Donut?”

The man appears to have been practicing wudu, the Islamic ritual of ablution performed before prayer.

It involves washing specific parts of the body — including the hands, face, arms and feet — in a prescribed sequence as an act of purification.

Muslims commonly perform wudu before the five daily prayers, known as salah, and it can also be performed before other religious activities, including handling or reading the Quran.

Savages. They use their left hand to wipe their ass, according to their religious practices; does he bother to wash his hands after that action? God help this country. This will not end well.

[Scrambler Bob]

So did he serve the donuts using his toes?

It makes a difference.

EEK I hope he didn’t serve them with his left hand (more EEK EEK)

PS

Is the left foot treated different from the right foot?

Bring back corporal punishment.

Needs to wash his brain that’s where the stench is at.

His feet don’t look cracked, calloused and bloodied from working in the fields for 10-12 hours in the hot sun.
