    It’s great how the workers use their bare hands to feel the connection of everyone before and after them who has touched the sandwich

    • @jameswalker199
      @jameswalker199 Před 10 měsíci +31

      There's two schools of thought on this. One is that gloves keep dead skin and oils off of the food, the other is that gloves prevent you from feeling when your hands are dirty and therefore mean you wash your hands and/or change your gloves much less often.

      I hate to tell you gloves are one of the dirtiest things you can use when handling food. Hands washed correctly and sanitised are far far far safer for food handling. You will not find a single chef behind closed doors using gloves, except for simpletons and cuts. People in delis etc. do it for show.

      gloves are good for protecting the person using them(to an extent), but get dirty just as quickly as skin. because the common perception is there 'safer' they can be counter productive in a food manufacturing environment. A good washing policy is usually better for hygiene, company spending and the environment.

    I like how the workers are wearing hair nets and aprons and all sorts of food safety gear to prevent contaminants from getting into the sandwiches but then they handle them all with their bare hands. We all know the hands never get dirty and don't need protection gear to avoid contaminants getting into the food.
    EDIT: Oh it gets even better. The guys loading the sandwiches into the boxes are wearing gloves to make sure the boxes don't get contaminated. How thoughtful.

    • @Kat-lt6qd
      @Kat-lt6qd Před 10 měsíci

      Why are you so convinced that gloves are magical bacteria repeller? These people deep wash their hands directly prior to beginning work, so I'm assuming your concern would be anything they touch once already working? That also applies when wearing gloves, no? Whatever you are convinced will be on their hands is now on the gloves instead.
      There have been studies in the UK that wearing gloves can actually increase hygiene issues. This is due to people feeling a false sense of protection. When they have bare hands they are more aware of potential issues and deeply wash their hands regularly throughout. In addition to this, they can detect if something feels off with an ingredient, something not apparent to the naked eye, like a sticky piece of ham for examlle, which suggests unhealthy bacteria & which wouldn't be noticed while wearing gloves. Then you keep touching more with those now contaminated gloves.
      This is why in the UK you rarely see people who handle food wearing gloves. 9 times out of 10, when I see people freaking out about gloves, it's an American. Keep nails short, remove all jewellery (which they haven't in this clip & I do have an issue with) deep clean throughly regularly & there shouldn't be a problem.

      clearly you never worked in a kitchen. even if you go to gordon ramseys kitchens they simply wash and sanitize their hands regularly. Wearing gloves actually traps sweat/dirt and builds up heat (this is bad). working with a single item, on a manufacturing line its actually better to not wear gloves (risk of contamination is low with clean, sanitized hands).
      latex gloves actually don't last very long and often break into pieces and get lost into food.
      also after handing food after about 5 minutes gloves get slippery and your fine motor skills like peeling apart 2 pieces of ham are not easy.
      Lastly stopping the entire production line for workers to go wash hands, dry them and put new gloves is like sitting down for a meal and then brushing your teeth between each bite you take. its much easier, faster, and hyginic to finish the task and then properly clean up.

      Gloves aren't a legal requirement when handling food here. Gloves can get just as dirty as skin (someone can easily touch their face/mouth/hair/whatever with a glove on) - but there's often a false assumption that if you're wearing gloves it's automatically safe. This has been shown to (in some cases) decrease handwashing/glove changing to stop contamination because people assume gloves = clean. So the focus is on proper, regular, thorough handwashing to ensure safety. Not sure where you're based, but the UK has a far, far lower incidence of food-related illnesses than the US - 14.8% of population in the US vs 1.5% of the population in UK in 2018, for example. So gloves aren't the big deal here!

      gloves are good for protecting the person using them(to an extent), but get dirty just as quickly as skin. because the common perception is there 'safer' they can be counter productive in a food manufacturing environment. A good washing policy is usually better for hygiene, company spending and the environment.

      Would you rather they wear gloves and not be able to feel when their hands are dirty? The theory goes that when you feel you have touched something like cold meat, you are hyper aware that you have touched something that makes your hands dirty, therefore you wash your hands more often. Counterintuitively, this makes wearing gloves to handle food less hygienic.
