Noteworthy quotes from this episode
“Every time you bring a box of gloves into your food processing facility, you're bringing in potentially a million plus coliform units. Now, is that a problem? I'm not a microbiologist, but if some of them take hold in a dirty corner of a plant or they find a space to start propagating, then you've got a problem.” – Steve Ardagh
