Most restaurants use dishwasher to clean their dishes/glasses. The temp of water in the dishwater should kill the bacteria that lingers on the dishes/glasses. If you are worried about this, you may need to check out the places you are going....are they dirty? Most city have a website that you can find the health inspectors report on almost all food establishments. Hope this helps.

You could catch a cold or the flu, e-coli and hep A. This last one has been such a HUGE problem in the St Louis area that, since the deaths of several people, all the workers in the food industry MUST now get innoculated for Hep-A Frankly, I would be far more concerned about the salad bar or the food on the buffet table...think about all the unwashed body parts touching that stuff??!! Eeeeeuuuuww! It is a wonder any of us manages to remain alive!
You do know we all have an absolutely effective preventative measure that everyone of us CAN take; it prevents all of the above and more each and every time :
WASH YOUR HANDS PEOPLE!!!

No you can't get Hep B or C from drinking out of a glass. Hep A yes because it's transferred from fecal matter. Hep B and C are blood borne pathogens and can contracted from unprotected sex, or contact with blood of an infected person. You of course would also have to have a wound at the site. Hep A is curable with meds. Hep B and C not so much, C will destroy your liver. Hope this helps.

You can definitley get a cold sore from drinking from a cup from someone who had it, but i'm almost positive you can't get it from drinking out of a glass from a restaurant unless someone laced the glass with their blood im no doctor but really the chances are slim

tongue herpes, chlamydia, bovine spongiform encephalitis, worms, dog breath, cup breath, brain freeze, acne, stinky armpits, or your shoes may fall off.
ask them to wash it.
