Original Message (NaturalNews) (Note: This true but humorous article contains mildly offensive language. Do not continue reading if you are easily offended.) A researcher from the University of Arizona has determined that 72 percent of shopping carts are contaminated with fecal matter. A full 50 percent also contained e.coli. Ready for some shopping fun?

The research was carried out by Professor Charles Gerba who swabbed the handles of 85 shopping carts across four states, reports USA Today ( [link to www.usatoday.com] Those swabs were then analyzed to determine how many contained fecal matter.

"What are you doing up so late in the lab?" someone probably asked Charles Gerba. "Looking for some fecal matter!" came the reply. "And all I've found so far is this s#*t!"

Turns out he found what he was looking for… and plenty of it. More was found on the grocery carts than is typically found in a restroom, say researchers. That's probably because restrooms are often cleaned (well, at least we hope they are) while grocery shopping carts are never cleaned. Oh God, seriously? Yep, that's what those antibacterial wipes are for, if you prefer chemicals to the fecal matter. Grocery stores almost never clean their shopping carts, you know. They just leave them out in the rain and hope whatever is on them gets washed off from time to time.
