What’s the point of food-safe gloves? You’re still touching everything. I don’t get it
In: 25
So, the nice thing about gloves is that you can take them on and replace them with new gloves. So, say for example I’m cutting a chicken that’s raw. I don’t want to get raw chicken on a salad I’m preparing so I just remove the gloves and put on a fresh pair and go work on a salad (You’d still want to wash your hands when you’re doing this but this is an example). This reduces the chances of cross contamination immensely. There’s also the chance that you’re working with something that can get corrosive to your hands over long periods of time (like an acid or extremely spicy food) and the gloves will act as a barrier to protect your hands. They won’t do it all, of course (like I said, you still want to wash your hands regardless) but it just cuts the chances of risk down immensely.
