How do you handle this situation.

Not very well anymore, because when you happen to bring it their attention, they look at you like you are nuts.
For instance, just two days ago, I went to a small, old-time country store/take out, where they have very upscale deli items for sale and I ordered a sandwich. This has not been the first time I have noticed this happening there, but the first time I ordered a sandwich from there & knew if it happened when I put in an order, that I was going to have to say something & of course it did.
The person/people that work there never wash their hands when going from food to money, nor do they wear gloves while handling the food. So, I watched him make my sandwich and in between he had to do a money transaction and never went back to wash his hands after this and just before he put his hands back on my food, I said to him, "Would you mind too terribly washing your hands before handling my food now?". I wasn't rude or threatening, in fact, I was pleading more than anything else and if looks could kill, his look would have killed me. No comments at all from him, nothing and & he did not go back to wash his hands. Needless to say, I quietly walked out the door when he turned his back to finish putting my sandwich together. For this reason, I am not going back there, ever.

Ask the waitperson for a clean cup or utensil.

in the hustle and bustle of a very busy restaurant, things get overlooked. as much as we try to check things, they get past us once in awhile. just ask for a clean glass or spoon.

Simple, ask the waiter or waitress to bring you something clean, nicely.

Mistakes are made by all of us. As long as I catch it before I use it, I just ask for a new one. If its all dirty, I walk out.

I send it back and ask for a clean one.
