Why This Matters

RECONTAMINATION: Towel drying removes sanitizer film that continues killing bacteria. Introduces new bacteria from towel - even 'clean' towels have 100,000+ bacteria. Spreads contamination across all dried items.

Code Requirements

ALWAYS air dry after sanitizing. No towel drying ever. Adequate drain boards/racks required. Allow complete drying before stacking. If must handle wet items, use single-use paper towels. Towels for drying hands only.
