They handle and sell unwrapped baguettes in France as well. I have watched them prepare food in exclusive restaurants in Paris, Nice and Bordeaux, arranging salads with their bare hands, perhaps wiping their hands on their aprons every once in a while, but not washing them or wearing hygiene gloves as most in food preparation now do in the US. People there see to have the sniffles a lot in winter...
