    Probably for food safety reasons, right? When I worked a fast food job I was told never take anything from the customer because who knows how well it was cleaned, what’s been in it, etc.

      Reminds me of a friend’s story who worked at a construction market. An old lady wanted to return a toilet brush - used of course. Her reason was that “it’s not dishwasher-safe”. I don’t want to touch this lady’s tupperware, neither do I want a worker, a table or a spoon at a takeout restaurant to touch it. Tbh I want a saftey distance for all food related businesses - and myself - of at least 2m all the time to anything which has been in that dishwasher.

        It’s possible she intended to use it for something else, such as scrapping food from dishes (sounds like a bad idea, but at least it’s safe hygiene-wise)

      Most places have customers put their own leftovers in boxes so this isn’t a problem.
