One hand washes the other

[gordonzola]

One of the most striking things about the cheese conference takes place in the bathrooms. I think I commented on this last year, but hand washing is epidemic. There were longer lines for the sinks than the toilets. It was noticeably different than the average men's room. It made me proud. These are my fellow food professionals and they take food safety seriously. Unlike many other Americans.

I think I will somehow incorporate hand washing into my next cheese tattoo.

another profession's bathroom culture

My professors used to always say that one good way of telling if someone else is also a chemist is that they always make sure to wash their hands before using the bathroom. I was like that for quite some time, too!

I wash first for myself and last for everyone else.
