One of the dirtiest places you can touch are the handles of grocery shopping carts. They’ve done tests of all the germs that are present on shopping carts and the results have been astounding. Be sure to sanitize/wash hands as soon as you’re done touching those things.

Tell me about it. I always use the wipes, then Purell my hands when I get back to my car. I use the wipes to line the kiddie seat, too, because lord knows what’s there, especially at certain richly diverse grocery stores.

that’s why I always lick the handle clean before I use one.

I almost can’t stand to go to Costco anymore and see folks pushing their carts, eating the taste samples, licking their fingers, and then looking at the label of the can of soup I was going to buy.

I never stop at those samples anyways - or let my kids (My wife does though). They block the aisles, the eaters block the rest of the aisle - the whole thing just really makes me mad. (Hmmm - perhaps if I could make up a fake letter from the CDC banning all tasting tables....)
