I’ve recently posted about this and got mostly a disagreements from others.
I wanted to share my thoughts on how bakeries in Japan don’t cover their whole loaves of bread and how I thought this was unhygienic. The loaves are often not behind a barrier and are at face level, thereby being the line of fire anyone talking, sneezing or coughing. Is it because the Japanese don’t eat the outer crust and therefore don’t mind if that gets a little spit soaking? They go to the trouble of individually wrapping every roll and croissant in plastic, why can they use wrapping for the loaves too? Or at least place them behind some protective barrier.
