I have cottoned onto the absolute 'horror' of putting a hat on the floor. However, I would take 100 hats on the floor to one meal prepared and eaten off the floor!

What's up with that logic?

Also, taking shoes off at the door is great, after venturing in the filth and chemicals out there, but why is it impossible for a Thai to wash their hands when getting home, especially when it's straight into the kitchen to make a meal?

Can't go along with the last part...my wife is almost fanatic about washing hands and washing food during preparation.

If I have been reading the newspaper, I am instructed to wash my hands before picking up my breakfast toast.

ya maybe I should have kept it to one Topic.

I just think it's funny that hats cannot go on the floor but food can.
