I drink the coffee, touch the cans with my lips, and occasionally have ice. I am healthy as they come and rarely get sick. As I stated above, I have been drinking from Boeing Springs for over two decades and can't attribute a single illness to it. My suggestion here to everyone is to not ever work in a kitchen. You will see things....
I get it, people are gross. I just can't live my life worried about the cans and the cups. It's usually the pilots wiping everything down that are sick on a trip because of "allergies".
You make a good point.
I would clean the yoke and a few switches with the headset cleaning wipes in the foil packs-but that’s about it. Carried my own headcrushers (D/C’s).
Disclaimer—I never was one of those guys, ones who would use 20 plus headset wipes to clean EVERY switch. G@ddammit Carl! Are you gonna do surgery in here? I do remember saying that before.
