We are accustomed, when we order a soft drink in a bar or restaurant, to have it served to us with a slice of lemon. But you might think twice when you hear what a waitress says.
Adriana Lee is a young American who has gone viral in TikTok after sharing a video in which he explains the risks we run when we have lemon in our drinks.
People say that waiters place lemon or orange slices in glasses, sometimes after “touching money” or “other people’s dishes.” “I don’t know who needs to hear this, but don’t put lemon in the water in a restaurant,” he warned in the video, which has already been viewed more than 168,000 times.
“The moment I became a waitress I realized that I would never ask for a lemon again in my water,” said the young woman.
“Because, first of all, you know that waiters they put it on themselvesNo? They touch money, they touch other people’s dishes… They touch all kinds of things,” says Adrianah Lee.
“And yes, obviously the waiters wash their hands frequently, but when you’re serving a table and the customer says ‘Bring me four waters with lemon,’ they just put them on. I know because I’m a waitress.“, says.
Adrianah Lee adds that the waiters are also responsible for cutting the lemons and while she wears gloves when she does it, she can’t “accountable for no one else.”
“When I am at home I wash all the products, but I have never seen a washed lemon in my life in a restaurant,” he continued. “And I have worked in many restaurants, in five-star places, in cafes,” he adds.
