Researchers Find the Germiest Surfaces in Supermarkets

Keith Connors Keith Connors November 2nd, 2020

CBC’s Marketplace researchers in Toronto swabbed more than 130 surfaces in 24 grocery stores and found the dirtiest places you should never touch. You may find some of the results a bit surprising.

They visited 24 grocery stores and swabbed several places including the baby seat, PIN pad, freezer door handle, etc.

Top 3 Germiest Places at the Supermarket:

1.PIN pad 

2. Basket handle

3. Freezer door handle *tie*

3. front of the shopping cart *tie*

Believe it or not, the shopping cart handle was the cleanest surface!
