You're not actually arguing FOR food safety. You're arguing for the illusion of food safety. "Safety theatre," to borrow Lewis Black's term for all the regulations and procedures that don't actually improve anyone's safety.

No, that's where you're wrong. if gloves protected against 'germs' then surgeons wouldn't have to clean their hands for several minutes before putting them on.

Maybe I'm underestimating the ubiquity of recognizing her name, but if Steenkamp had been the Olympic athlete and had killed her not-as-famous male partner, I'd be referring to the victim as "Steenkamp's deceased boyfriend." This isn't gendered; it's about who is more known.

Jesus you're dense. No one is arguing against safety regulations. We're arguing that this particular safety regulation is counterproductive. Have you never heard of bureaucracy before? Because you'd make a prime bureaucrat — so long as everything's been sanctified with paperwork, it's safe, and to hell with actual…

Gloves are dumb because cooks wash their hands but no one is going to wash their gloves. You can dirty your glove on something and not realize it and then go back to cooking. Everything hands touch, gloves touch. Gloves provide only an illusion of cleanliness in a setting like a kitchen.

Yeah, 'cause this icky thing that happened one time TOTALLY outweighs the fact that wearing gloves quite possibly makes things more unhealthy/more difficult over the long-term.

Hi, Former fine dining chef here. Latex gloves are probably far less sanitary for customers than bare hands. For example your average chef might have to prepare around 150 items of prep, give or take, in the course of the prep aspect of the shift. That would require a glove change for every item on the basis of…

You can think they're not pants all you want. People are going to keep wearing them as pants. They're pants because they are clothing that covers your legs and ass. Whether you like them or want to wear them yourself is your business, but your subjective opinion about it doesn't mean anything to anyone else.

I have waitressed. Yes, I forewent the tongs and usually handled your lemon wedge with my bare hands. Deal with it.

Gloves make cooking less safe, not safer. You need to be able to sense temperature so you don't burn yourself, when something is slippery so you don't drop it, and to handle knives and food securely so you don't cut yourself when chopping. Gloves impair your sense of touch and make it more dangerous. Glove wearers are…

I vote PBR* because I'm sick of IPAs and their pretentious bullshit. Just because it's bitter doesn't make it good beer. Yeah, I said it. COME AT ME, HOP FANBOYS.

I am disgusted, DISGUSTED that Blue Moon SWILL is beating out Rose! Me thinks people have not had enough good rose in their lives, or enough good beer for that matter.

A little surprised that LSD is currently beating molly. I know so many people who have done MDMA, but it's mostly just my hipstery-hippyish friends who are down with LSD. I've never dropped acid, but I'll roll anytime, anywhere, baby.

My my, isn't this exploitable...

They're all in the bathroom.

I'd take PBR over any IPA. I fucking hate IPAs. It's a scorched earth policy in a bottle. I like hops, but not at the expense of all other flavors.

"I was going to pick PBR but it looks like someone else already voted for it."

Champagne vs red wine is just cruel.

Some of these votes were painful. Like LSD vs. molly. Each one has a distinct time and place. You wouldn't bring molly camping in the wilderness with a few of your closest friends. You wouldn't bring acid anywhere where you have to meet new people.
