I recommend you refrain from eating them. Problem solved.


If you read the article, you'd know that handling them is a problem.

There’s too much to worry about - it’s kverwgelming. I focus on what I can control - like washing my hands.

when I get home from any shopping, I put everything away and then wash my hands with soap.

In the stores where I know I'll never return anything I tell them I'm okay without the receipt (I'm white and know this is a privilege) and if there's an option I have it emailed to me rather than printed, and then wash my hands when I get home anyway.

Who takes a receipt anymore when you can get them electronically at most places?

How is that possible? Where do we start?

Also, shouldn’t insurance companies be all over this, logically?
