The results: In four of the five restaurants, the ice that came from the self-service machines had more bacteria than the toilet water, reports Tampa Bay Online. Three of the five cups of ice from the drive-through windows had more bacteria than the toilet water. The bacteria in the ice included fecal coliform or E. coli, which can only come from the feces of warm-blooded animals.


Hmm, so that's why fast food tastes like shit.

Bah, we need some bacteria here and there.  How else will we keep our immune systems strong? ;)

Drink bottled water ... or soda. The burgers aren't very clean either ... if you want fast food get frozen food and microwave it, it's probably a lot cleaner.

Tolet water is as clean as tap water providing you drink it from the system.

But how the fuck do they make the ice cubes?

Don't they normally use an ice cube making machine that's connected to the water supply?

I thought it was from a sump-pump shoved into the sewer man-hole tube

They usually have ice machines ... they aren't very clean I must tell you ... they're rusty, leaky, moldy pieces of shit. And they break all the time. Yeah they use tap water to make it, but while tap-water is non-contaminated, ice cubes are stored in a dirty, leaky container waiting to be frozen and shot out, then scooped out with a dirty scoop or hands. Tap water has enough chlorine to kill most things, unless it's filtered and frozen by an ice machine, then handled un-sanitarily. (assuming there's a filter on it)

Well, this was one study of one town in Florida.

I hope it isn't true for all places.

But unless people in Florida are unusually filthy.

YUK

RTL Z, a Dutch news channel, did the same investigation in our country.
And surprise, surprise, our ice cubes are better than our toilet water.
And even the quality of our toilet water was better than the American one.
