Just curious. As a former waitress, I've noticed lower-end restaurants do not employ a designated prep cook. This usually means several waitresses make the salad without gloves and it's often questionable who has washed their hands. Just think: it's not cooked, so whatever bacteria is present will not be killed.

Bad as everything else is in those places, I totally wouldn't trust their salads!

I don't know about in america but here in Australia they have very strick rules about how things are to be prepred either by the cook or the kitchen hands most of them wear gloves even to handle money these days and you are not aloud to touch food if you have handled the money, without washing your hands.
I have a salad very rarely out only at McDonalds the prepackaged kind or if it is extremly hot and I don't feel like eating anything to heavy then I will have salad with my meal.

A very good question / advice?
But why salads alone... Even boiled and cooled items handled without gloves or by waiters having respiratory infections like cold or cough could be contaminated...
Those guys who have no waay to prepare their food or no time to do so and depend on the fast food establishments have to be careful to choose really clean and hygienic ones...

I agree with Ryan and Robert. I also usually eat my salads at home.
I used to frequent one of those salad bar restaurants, the type with a long salad bar, baked potato, soup, pasta and dessert bar, but I never eat nearly enough to justify the price of a salad and some soup at a buffet joint.

I have a hard time doing that. I think I am at a ff restaurant, so why try to eat healthy??? Also, once you add the dressing most of them are just as fattening as the cheeseburger and fries, so the long way of answering your question....No.
