Excerpt taken from Consumer Reports: Where The Germs Come From
“Shopping carts can harbor many germs, some of which come
from previous passengers. Some kids gnaw on cart handles, touch them with dirty
hands, or wear a leaky diaper while sitting in a cart. Other shoppers leave
germs on cart handles, too, sometimes even from the blood of raw meat, according
to Kelly Reynolds, an associate professor at the University of Arizona in
Tucson. Reynolds is also the lead author of a study published in the
International Journal of Environmental Health Research that found that most
shopping carts teem with germs. Blood from raw meat can carry salmonella, E.
coli, and campylobacter, and can infect children who chew on or touch cart
handles and then put their fingers in their mouths.”

Shopping Carts More Germy Than Public Restrooms
Arkansas Set to Pass Law Forcing Grocery Stores to Clean Up
Their Carts
From GMA
Feb. 8, 2007
Grocery store shopping cart handles have more germs than
public restrooms, making them one of the worst public places for germs,
according to researchers.
It's a problem that at least one state, Arkansas, is trying
to address, by passing a law forcing stores to clean up their carts.
How germy could shopping carts really be? Very, according to
researchers at the University of Arizona who tested all kinds of public surfaces.
They found that shopping carts were loaded with more saliva, bacteria and even
fecal matter than escalators, public telephones, and even public bathrooms. The
only surfaces that had more germs were playground equipment and bus rails.
The Arkansas law will push grocery stores to provide
sanitation wipes at the door so customers don't have to wrap their hands around
the last shopper's bacteria.
"When I was campaigning, many of my constituents
brought it to my attention [that] many shopping carts could possibly have germs
and contamination on them," Rep. Fred Allen, D-Ark., told "Good
Morning America."
"Every kid in America teethes on shopping cart
handles," said Dr. Chuck Gerba at the University of Arizona. "They
don't have the best sanitary habits. … I mean, you're putting your broccoli
where their butt was."
That's why Amanda Gutstadt always carries sanitizer when she
shops with her son Max, especially during flu season.
Even a fifth-grader can detect the germs. Nicole Shaw's
testing of shopping carts Wednesday night won her a spot in the North Carolina
Regional Science Fair.
"When I found the E.coli, I thought it was pretty nasty," she said. "I am working on getting a patent on my shopping cart cleaning system."
Some supermarkets already offer wipes, but if yours does
not, germ experts say the smartest thing to do is wash your hands and your
child's hands after you leave.
Another option is to spring for a baby shopping seat cover.
