Germs At The Food Court

Here's something that is sure the make the germaphobes of the world happy [sarcasm]--those nice plastic trays at mall food courts are as dirty as a gas station toilet seats.

Yup, that's the word from the University of British Columbia. Microbiologist at the University Bob Hancock says the mall trays they studied had "a fairly large number" of acinetobacter bacteria. Now, that fancy-named bacteria causes gastrointestinal illnesses and it is highly resistant to antibiotics.

Bon Appetit!
