State Tells Food Service Workers How to Wash, Dry Hands

Like passing a rule that food service workers should wear more gloves is really going to solve our food security problems. "Gloves give a false sense of security," says Deborah Dowdell, president of the New Jersey Restaurant Association. Right on, sister. At least when my hands are bare I can feel the grime on my fingertips, if not the E. coli.

when I worked in a kitchen we were taught to sing a song while washing our hands, and to not stop washing until we'd sung the song twice. My song was Freres Jacques, others used Christmas carols, the alphabet or Doe A Deer from The Sound of Music. Sounds sill, but it works, and its a habit I maintain when cooking at home, especially after touching raw meat.

I hope nobody used "The 12 Days of Christmas." ;)
