Horrific habits from excellent cooks

I shudder when I see people feed their animals from their eating utensils or kiss their pets on the muzzle, give them a scratch behind the ears and then turn back to the stove. Yuck.

Like others here, I maintain that if you're a pet owner good kitchen hygiene is imperative. But...

Would you come to a dinner party at my house if you knew that my big black feral cat Ajax presses his nose between my lips when I'm sleeping? Does that make me the kind of person, knowing that, whose potluck dish you'd avoid? You see, you just don't know about folks.

If someone actually cooked something for a workplace potluck, I'd eat it and not worry about the state of their kitchen. What I won't eat is the supermarket veg and dip tray.

I live.

Sorry, some of us over 60 like pork cooked properly - not overdone. But since where I live here in France, I practically know the pigs that my butcher has, I dont have to worry about the Upton Sinlair affect.
