How the fuck does McDonalds have fecal ice cubes?
>>
>>22096963
the ice machines never get cleaned. probably anything will end up with trace amounts of fecal matter if you don't clean it long enough.

they don't need to. it's on people's hands, it's in the air. not a significant amount, but given enough time enough will accumulate that it can be detected.

the bigger worry honestly is probably all the mold in those things. ice machines are nasty.
>>
>>22096977
A machine that makes ice is too cold for bacteria and mold.
>>
>>22096980
the entire machine isn't frozen, just a small part of it that makes the ice. the rest has water constantly running through it, so is damp, perfect conditions for mold. look it up, there's tons of pictures of moldy ice machines.

Mythbusters did an episode about whether one should store one's toothbrush in the bathroom, due to fecal bacteria. They accidentally found there was an equal amount of bacteria in the whole house. It has nothing to do with toilet lids, open or closed. If someone shits and comes out of the bathroom and you smell his shit, then those are actual fecal particles in the air you are breathing. If as another anon stated, not cleaning the ice machines would naturally allow a buildup.
>>
>>22096980
Ice machines are like an air filter, gross airborne stuff sticks to the ice.
And sure enough the only times they usually get cleaned is like 4 times a year if you're lucky.

There was a mythbusters ep that tested how far fecal matter would travel in a bathroom. It seemed like it travelled an insane distance, then they realised everything tested positive.

Turns out fecal matter is everywhere in the tiniest of trace amounts. What matters is how much bacteria there is and more importantly, if there are any parasites

Assuming I believe in "fecal particles" in the air (I don't ) are you suggesting people are farting in the ice machine or do these magic air poops float through the machine like magic fairy dust? You really expect me to believe there's just shit floating in the air everywhere at all times and everything and everyone is covered in "fecal particles" at all times.

>do these magic air poops float through the machine like magic fairy dust? You really expect me to believe there's just shit floating in the air everywhere at all times and everything and everyone is covered in "fecal particles" at all times.
Yes. What do you think you're smelling when somebody farts in your vicinity?
It's been tested and there is fecal matter pretty much everywhere. Not enough to be of any significance, but it makes a good alarmist headline.
>>
>>22097244

The shit that's in their ass, dummy. And just how is the magical omnipresent poo dust phasing through the solid ice machine and getting on the ice? Poo magic?

>The shit that's in their ass, dummy
Oh my god, you're fucking retarded. You smell things when particles enter your nose. The smell of shit is particles of shit entering your fucking nose. You fucking imbecile. Did you skip out on 4th grade science class or what?

do you think the ice machine has no openings? that it's a completely sealed off vessel? how does the ice get out then?
>>
>>22097256
>do you think the ice machine has no openings?
It has fairly good defense.
>>
>>22097250
If your magic shit dust was real then why isn't everyone constantly getting sick and dying from inhaling pieces of air shit at all times? After all, ingesting other peoples shit in your body is a almost guaranteed way to get really sick. Ever heard of Delhi Belly? That's from putting other people's shit in your body. And you can't answer how the shit powder in the air can phase through a solid ice machine to contaminate the ice?
>>

You won't believe this but people have tiny cells inside them that are constantly neutralizing other particles of things from the air that try to make us sick.

We have biological defences in our body to prevent things like that, another thing you should have learned in 4th grade science class.

The ice machine has openings you dumbfuck.
>>
>>22097261
>Ever heard of Delhi Belly? That's from putting other people's shit in your body.
the amount of shit that your body takes in from the air is absolutely miniscule. we're talking microscopic particles. to get sick you would need to take in a more significant amount.
let me ask you this, if you think the smell of a fart is just "the shit in their ass", then why aren't you just constantly smelling shit, blood and guts everywhere you go? the shit actually has to be expelled into the air to reach your nose. again, we are talking microscopic quantities. not enough to actually matter.
>>
>>22097265
clickbait articles for retards
>omg POOPY! That's SOOOO BAD!
Obviously most people wouldn't choose to have fecal particles in their mouth, but the truth of the matter is that fecal particles are everywhere in microscopic amounts and there's nothing you can do about it.

>>22097279
Sure and the shit dust just magically seeks out the openings and some how there's enough farts in the air at all times for enough to sneak inside the openings and contaminate the ice. That's like the premise of a bad horror movie, you fucking mongoloid.
>>22097281
If there's enough shit air everywhere to contaminate ice in a closed machine then there's enough to contaminate your nose and make you sick. Yet no one ever gets sick from smelling air from an ass full of shit. The air that comes out of ass passes the shit and that's why farts smell. If the air passed blood or guts then you would smell those too. Like when someone burps the air passes their guts so you smell guts.
>>
>>22097292
>Sure and the shit dust just magically seeks out the openings
it's in the air, buddy. air circulates everywhere.
>If there's enough shit air everywhere to contaminate ice in a closed machine then there's enough to contaminate your nose and make you sick.
no, not really. again, we are talking about microscopic quantities. we have technology to pick up on extremely trace amounts. it is not significant at all. the article is just clickbait, they're not "contaminated" with feces in any meaningful way, the ice machine likely contains thousands of different particles you wouldn't expect, but feces is eye catching and gets you to click.
>The air that comes out of ass passes the shit and that's why farts smell
because the air is carrying ass particles.

It is an indicator for for fecal pollution and overall sanitary quality.
The 2010 study showed about 48% testing positive for total coliform in soda fountains and e coli in 11%. A 2023 study found total coliform in 41% of soda water fountains.

>>22097250
Thats called gas. The shit particles have not magically become dust floating around, nor have solid particles phased through your pants.

>>22097039
Actually no. I used to work for a water testing lab, and later worked for as a water system operator. Most of our systems were clean every month, and we'd occasionally get total coliform. We'd disinfect the system with chlorine, then re-test. Usually that fixed the problem. Sometimes theres worse forms of contamination, and those might give us e coli positives in addition to total coliform which was way worse. One example I could give was when a vent to the water storage tank got busted open where there was normally a fine mesh. Ants decided to crawl down the vent and take whatever dirt and bacteria on their bodies with them. There was another one in this remote trailer park that was probably built in 1950, where the wellhead sticks out of the ground protected by a hollow concrete ring maybe 4 feet in diameter with a big round concrete slab over the top of it. This was instead of a modern cap. So under that slab was this rusty well cap that was also cracked. Well the concrete slab got cracked, and there was bird shit all over it.

The toilet is usually the cleanest surface in the house. Flushing water followed by periods of dryness. Not a good surrounding for bacteria.
Same with the lid. You sit on it, but only a very short part of the day, the legs and buttucks are not that dirty of body parts and as soon as you stand up again the water quickly evaporates and the surface is again dry as the sahara.
The no1 germ exchange station are things like the door handle.
>>
>>22097261
The thing is that bodies have been exposed to these things that are in the air for millions of years, so they are adapted to it.
So where is the problem with the ice machine then if we are exposed to it constantly anyway? By the relatively small number of people who actually get sick from the ice we can see it still actually is not that big of a problem, but the idea is that the bacteria in the machine can live and multiply and basically do a concentrated attack which then sometimes leads to problems compared to a constant low exposure.

I don't know what to believe now. I've been told ITT there's enough farts in the air of restaurants to contaminate ice machines with shit particles. How the hell are so many farts floating around in restaurants that they can float up into solid metal machines and contaminate the ice.
>muh ice machine openings
So that many farts are able to waft into ice machine openings to contaminate the ice? And that's assuming farts even have massive amounts of shit particles anons claim.
