People Took to the Internet to Share Little-Known Facts About Their Jobs That We’d Rather Not Know

Here’s a gross fact that you probably never thought about. You know those metal or plastic baskets lined with parchment paper that restaurants use to serve fries, onion rings, and the like? Well, someone who used to work in food service confessed that restaurants never clean them. These serving dishes never go through the wash with the other flatware. 

Those plastic and metal baskets get cleaned off a table and go straight back to the kitchen for another round of parchment paper and greasy deliciousness. Some people won’t be grossed out by this job secret, but others might. It’s just something to be aware of next time you go out to eat.
