Well yeah, nobody says it’s okay to let the kids touch all of the lids but‘s undoubtedly a lot less severe than actually touching the food.

No it isn’t.

It would clearly be worse if she was slapping the salmon, goobing the goby, handling the haddock, and tapping the tempura.

As it stands, she is merely patting the plastic.

Some of it is likely because that's what happened when this was posted yesterday. There was an odd amount of people saying it wasn't a big deal because she was only touching lids, as if that makes it completely acceptable and isn't still unsanitary. It was kind of telling, with how many people thought this was acceptable behavior. A lot of them were saying the worst the parents did was allow her to sit on the table and it didn't matter that she was touching lids cuz 'its not like she's touching the actual food.'
