8 Things You Should NEVER Order At A Restaurant

Freshly squeezed orange juice

Think freshly squeezed juice is healthier than pasteurised juice? Think again. Bacteria from the skin of the fruit can end up in the juice and multiply.

The salad bar

No restaurant monitors children's wandering fingers at the salad bar, coughing and sneezing, or whether people use the right tongs in the right bowl, so there are plenty of opportunities for contamination.

Raw oysters

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 80,000 people suffer from infection caused by vibrio bacteria from the seafood every year.

Raw sprouts

The unsuspecting health food often found in salads is an extremely risky ingredient. While they're packed with nutrients, the beans are sprouted in warm, humid conditions, which encourage bacteria to flourish.

The bread basket

If you thought that bread basket delivered to your table was prepared just for you, you're wrong. Celebrity chef Anthony Bourdain once let slip that the practice of recycling.

Buffet food

Buffets are notoriously bad news. Throughout the course of an evening, think how many people have lifted the lid off dishes to have a peek.

Ice cream

At some restaurants, the ice cream will be a supermarket variety that you’re charged outrageously marked-up prices to enjoy.

Chicken

In an effort to make sure guests don’t get food poisoning, restaurants err too far on the safe side and overcook it. Branch out and try something new instead.
