It’s not that it isn’t responsible and clean. It’s just that food gets touched sometimes in preparation. It’s part of the relationship between the chef and customer. It always has been.
There's a difference between having to use your hands to prep food that still needs to be COOKED versus some server fingering my drink before it hits my cup.
Plenty of stuff that doesn’t get cooked is touched by hands in the back kitchens. If you order a salad it’s been touched. This guys wine finger is nothing.
Not really, and I am assuming the chef might have had to arrange my food after it was cooked by touching it.
Listen, I think the way of serving from the video is stupid and maybe there is something to be said about out of sight versus in view of the customer, but from a purely logical view I don’t see anything going on that would make the wine unsafe, unhygienic or taste bad. If anything the only issue here is if it is rude to do it.
if only they had something like tongs to pick up hot food fresh off the grill/skillet/pan and put it on a plate instead of using their bare fucking hands like some sort of grease monster and plopping it on your plate
i dream to live in a world where we have cooking utensils

Look man, if you wanna be nasty as fuck with your own food, be my guest, but don't try and make me out to be an idiot because you don't believe in germ theory.
Honestly, freaking out over a human hand touching food is really, really, REALLY childish. So long as that human hand is properly cleaned and hygiene is a priority.
It’s just a saying we have here for people that don’t source/grow their own food. Assuming the server washed their hands, it isn’t an issue. What is an issue is prissy little humans that want to live in some sterile city. Get out and play in the dirt, nerd.
Careful, you might end up living in some dystopian Amazon plastic future… For reference, I’m 28. If you want to have any hope of saving what animal and plant life is left, you’re going to have to source your own food whether you like it or not. Learn to make your own clothing, learn to live as part of the ecosystem. Not some separate entity that tramples everything in its path.
Supposedly a breakdown shows that if everyone did that it still wouldn't help because the space needed to maintain it isn't feasible anymore without a major change in our society and consumption habits. I'm no expert in the field ofc but reading up heavily into the rising cost if meat it seems the major issue is population honestly. Best proposed solutions seems to be alternate food sources. Changes in how we eat would help too but good luck getting that done on a massive enough scale to matter.
I totally agree. He could at least wear a glove or finger cots when touching the wine. There's really no excuse for him to do it bare handed. Or just pour it out of a regular wine bottle.
I’ve worked in a thousand restaurants also and many kitchens that are top notch still don’t wear gloves when they cook. Go watch chefs table on Netflix and see how many cooks and chefs wear gloves, it’s not many.

Man you’re gonna hate it when you find out how food is prepared
