Did you know when you go eating out; they spit and p**s on your food ?

Question

how to prevent this ? or how find somewhere which don't do it

Answer 1

This is a highly over-exaggerated and common misconception that has, unfortunately, been propagated by movies like "Waiting".

Having worked in kitchens for as long as I have, and with as many chefs and cooks as I have, I have NEVER seen ANY of the cooks contaminate the customers food in ANY way, shape or form. Sure, an order coming back can be irritating - it just means that there's more work that needs to be done. However, if it's a legitimate complaint (undercooked, cold, made wrong, etc.) we'll fix it. We won't be happy about it, but we're not going to spit in it or blow or nose in it or anything like that.

To paraphrase one of the other answerers, doing something like that is essentially a death sentence. If you're caught, the chances that you'd be able to get a restaurant job again would be nil - and there would likely be legal ramifications, as well.

However... if it's that much of a concern to you, my only suggestion would be to cook for yourself, at home.

Answer 2

Yeah, that really only happens when you are rude to them. I guess it can happen anywhere, from the swankiest bistros to the most run-down diners. Just be civil and respectful, that's all.

Answer 3

i think the only time they spit on your food is if you're rude to them when ordering. they never p**s on it, otherwise you would be dead, have hepatitis, or you would notice.

If you are afraid of this happening then i guess you will have to prepare your own food.

Answer 4

I worked in the restaurant industry for 12 years and the only time I ever heard or saw something like that was a cook spit on another employees sandwich. He was fired and was arrested. He will never work in the food industry again.

Answer 5

When we see them spit and p**s on our food we just rub their tip between our butt cheeks before we leave it and a couple of cockroaches on the table. Touche, heh?

Answer 6

EXCUSE ME!!! I was a waitress for 31 years never saw anyone spit or any other type vile thing to any ones food.. get real .. Yes the cooks get upset when food comes back but it is a job and it should be done correctly , and that is what they do.. .one has to smile at such craziness... EX WAITRESS...

Answer 7

This is not the norm! If you are a normal person, and polite to the waitstaff, you have nothing to worry about, and even then it takes alot of abuse for this to occur.

Answer 8

Of course they don't pee on your food. They might spit on your food if you did something to make them mad.

One place that you can be sure they won't do this sort of thing is in your own kitchen.

Answer 9

Be nice and civil to whoever serves you. Chat with them etc - dont go to maccy d's or fast food joints where they hate EVERYONE cos yes they do do horrible things to your food, i know people who worked in them an they admit to doing it themselves. In a fastfood chain here in England, 6 different types of s***n was found in the mayonnaise.

the only time that this might be done is when a customer is rude and nasty to the waitress/waiter.  This is a way for the waitress/waiter to get even.

Answer 20

You can never "stop" it from happening. Or know where to go to not have it happen.  You have to "trust" I cant even think about it or I wouold never eat out.  

When I waitressed MANY years ago, I had my boyfriend st the time tell me "dont serve the Chicken noodle soup" the bosses son in law was pissed at him so he pissed in the soup.  

I also witnessed ppl drop raw chicken on the kitchen floor and cook it. I have also heard stories of places where kids who worked there thought it would be funning to pick thier nose and place it on burger..  Gross, but there are sick and disturbed ppl in the world!

Answer 21

I have heard about thing like this happening and looked at some show on tv  where people have been caught on video doing this type of stuff. I guess if you want to eat out  thats just a chance you have to take.

Answer 22

That's hardly a common practice...Just think about it, there are numerous people in a kitchen of a restaurant.  The types of behavior you are describing is so obnoxious, that the person would most certainly be reported. And obviously, management would frown on that kind of activity.

That's not to say it doesn't happen, but I have never heard of it happening except in the case of where the customer P/O'ed the waitress or when the customer was an authority figure...like a cop...and some juvenile in the back had a bone to pick with them. But again they were caught and fired...if not worse.

Answer 23

Ive heard of that sometimes.  The workers are much more likely to do that if the customer complains and sends back their order.  So if you dont want that to happen just be happy with what you get the first time.
