[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have to laugh at people that think towels are the culprit - At a party one will touch the stem of a glass that has germs, serviceware handles - The disposable towels aren’t going to be the biggest spreader of germs. I think OP wants guests to have a more dry, than soggy hand towel. Change the towels out. If average stay is 3 hours - I bet half the guests will need to use the toilet. Won’t be a line waiting.[/quote] While I agree that serving utensils spread germs, I personally avoid them by sticking to passed appetizers or simply using a clean fork to pick up food. A lot of savvy hosts realize this and plan accordingly. Having purell accessible near any buffet is wise and tremendously appreciated. Nobody wants to get sick right before Christmas. [/quote] I had no idea people obsessed over things like this. I never think about them, never get sick.[/quote] …said the woman whose family is sidelined from holiday festivities thanks to the dreaded stomach bug. Look, nobody is obsessed. Savvy people simply take steps to avoid germs. For example, whenever we have a catered event at work or attend big conferences with countless events that include cocktail receptions or buffets, tons of people get sick…except for those of us who take steps to either avoid touching shared touch-points or carry purell in our pockets. I haven’t used a shared hand towel in many years. And I can’t understand why anyone would. [/quote]
