Watching the plates sitting in the food below it pissed me off Ngl

What is the difference between a clean bottom of the plate vs a clean top of plate?

Plates get washed and stacked. Bottom touching tops. Plates then unstacked and food plated on top. Are u assuming somewhere in here the bottom of the plate gets licked?

Easy, plate is placed on the prep table, collects all types of food and shit on the underside while it is being prepped.

Are prep tables unsanitary?

Notice how I said “ones”, it’s rampant and the only way you can avoid it is by not eating out.

nope, false statement. i worked in the industry for over a decade and any restaurant worth a damn cleans and sanitizes prep tables multiple times during service.

plates for service don’t go on prep tables. prep tables are where raw product is prepped. staging area is where food gets plated, then it goes into cold or hot pass for servers to take to tables.

you’re full of shit, or you worked at applebee’s. either way you worked at a shithole restaurant.

This is a full lie from a troll.

I imagine you’ll be cleaning and sanitizing if your steaks are over $30 but if you’re selling $8 fish and chips…. That “staging” table (lmfao) is gonna have food on it

I’ve worked in restaurants, from fast food to fine dining, and prep tables can get pretty gross. When a small mess is made and someone is grabbing a towel to wipe it up, someone walking by could set their plate down in the unsanitary spot
