I just try not to use my hands for touching stuff like meat. Was displeased
tonight when I discovered that not only had I bought ground beef patties but
that they'd wrapped them up in paper that I could only take off with my
hands. The fork just shredded it.

Ming Tsai is the one who gets me. I've seen him touch raw chicken, not wash
his hands then grab the pepper ball. Ick!
