[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]If it's sealed[/b] and not absorbing stains...that would tend to indicate that it is not that porous, kwim?  Also, most people don't set bloody meat directly on the counter top or cut raw chicken directly on the counter top (I don't care what kind of counter top you have).  People use cutting boards for raw meat or they at least set it on a plate.  Also, we wipe our counters down after cooking.  Again, if you set raw meat on your counter tops and don't wipe them down regularly you are going to have bacteria issues - I don't care what type of counter top you have.[/quote]

Except people are fulling admitting that they don't seal, because sealing every year like you're supposed to is  a pain in the butt.  Sorry but that's just gross.  Who doesn't drip food on their counters from time?  [/quote]

Honestly, I think you have a irrational obsession with bacteria.  My granite is not resealed every year, I always use a cutting board, and I wash the counter afterwards with warm water and dish soap.  Occasionally, I clean the countertop with method granite cleaner.  We have never had a foodbourne illness.  If you are a germaphobe, go with the quartz with the anti-bacterial built in.  Most of us are not so 'grossed out" by the existence of bacteria.[/quote]
