It doesn't matter whether you are dining in a fancy restaurant, or eating in a small diner, the menu is handled by everyone. The customers and waiters all leave their own variety of germs on the menu. When you look to see what you want to order, you are not only contributing microbes but also picking up the ones left behind by others. Sometimes disease-causing germs are on that menu.
There is a way to avoid contaminating your hands before you eat and touch food. Remember your selection, and either go to the restroom and wash your hands (keep them clean by opening the door with a towel) or use some hand sanitizer. Having that sanitizer handy in your purse or pocket is very wise if you want to avoid getting sick . Leave the menu on the table for the waiter to pick up. Relax now and bon appetite.
