Nobody ever cleans them before they put them on the shelves, I have a friend who works in the packaging industry for them. This especially applies to the ones in a gas station/convenience store fridge. Trust, me, they are disgusting from transport.

Same goes for bars and pubs man. Never drink from the neck of a bottle before wiping. Dangerous bacteria found in rat urine.

Not even close. I saw a vending machine being refilled. There was a stack of cans of soda. Vending machine guy put his foot right on top of the cans to toe his shoe.
