      If you’re that concerned, I’d bring them. Do you wipe down the bottle? Because people definitely don’t wash their hands and then they touch it. Or lick their fingers and touch it. Even if the spout is untouched, the bottle is well-handled.

        The place we frequent they wipe the bottles down after each use, it’s a mutual thing between everyone. I don’t like supporting places that don’t even do the basics. But I always err on the side of caution, because even an employee can forget or not do an adequate job.

        Having options is great.

      If you think that’s gross, I’ve seen baby roaches in the parmesan cheese shaker that’s on a pizza hut table before. Any of the condiments out on a table at a restaurant are most likely a wee bit questionable. Once I left my last food service job, I made sure to tip better, and rarely went to restaurants for a long time.

        Yeah the back of many restaurants make me not want to go back there. I used to do inspections for strip mall type places. All access. Mice droppings above ceiling tiles are far too frequent.
