# If
a burger hits the floor, as long as it is picked up in less than ten seconds, the germ transfer levels will be low enough for the burger still to be served. More than ten seconds and the burger is no longer safe to serve.
This is less of an urban myth than you might think. I know people who work in McDonalds, and there are some very alarming stories...

# I used to live above a Chinese
and eat take out from there about 3 times a week. Then I had to change one of our fuses in their kitchen. I never ate there again, and it's made me ultra-cautious about such places.

# They sampled a shitload (pardon the pun) of burgers...
...and faecal matter was detected in around 80% of them. Hardly suprising really when you cut an animal to shreds the cac gets everywhere. It would be easy to be vegetarian if animals didn't taste so damn good!

# I had a traumatic experience
Peeling an orange, eating a segemnt or two, looking back at the orange, then spotting these little wriggly worms looking back at me.
Put me off oranges for quite some time.
