[QUOTE="Veloce, post: 1187308, member: 1041"] This is a common issue in restaurants. Many cooks use gloves as if they're magic sanitary devices, using a single pair in an 8 hour shift. Health inspectors look out for this type of thing and are very aware of cross contamination due to gloves. In my own kitchen, cooks change gloves many times per hour. I have a kitchen budget for disposables like gloves and I go well over budget for this reason and it's absolutely justified. Another thing that drives me insane is cooks wearing aprons to the bathroom. It's disgusting. My crew doesn't do it but our restaurant is in a large casino with many other food outlets. On a frequent basis, I see cooks from the casino buffet going to the bathroom with their aprons still on, presumably pulling the apron aside to pull their dick out and take a leak. If you come to Vegas, you should probably avoid those big casino buffets. Even the nice ones. (That said, I splurge on the Sterling Brunch buffet once every few months just because it's bottomless Perrier Jouet and caviar) Restaurants run by high IQ individuals still employ plenty of dumbfucks. I wish that wasn't the case but there's only so much you can do. You train and instruct and micro-manage to the best of your ability and you just hope for the best. Really, if you want to ensure the quality of what you eat, you must cook at home. There's very few other options. I'd say generally speaking higher end restaurants and certain large corporate restaurants are fairly stringent when it comes to food quality and sanitation, but there are many exceptions to this generalization.
