MORE BACTERIA ON A GROCERY CART THAN A TOILET SEAT. GROSS.
Did you know there is more bacteria on a shopping cart than on a public restroom toilet seat? According to several recent health warnings, swabs taken from shopping cart handles and seats have shown saliva, blood, fecal matter, mucus (and worse), plus Listeria, Salmonella, Staph, E. Coli, and general individual bacteria. Why are they dirtier than a bathroom's seat? It's because most stores clean their shopping carts only a couple of times each year. A restroom is cleaned at various times each day.
How do you keep your child safe from such disgusting germs? The answer is to use baby wipes or sanitizer and wipe down the front of the cart before you do your shopping. It's that simple.
