Celebrity Germs and Your Local Grocer

Whit Honea — Wed, 18 Mar 2009 20:33:00 GMT

I read somewhere that a cart in the grocery store has more germs on the handle than, well, it has a lot. A close second was the bowl of community peanuts on the bartop- seriously.

There are actually stores that have mini-carwashes for carts, a cartwash if you will. Our store just has Clorox wipes for those so inclined.

Of course you could go the route that our celebrities did. Guess who!

They say that shopping carts are disgusting. They're probably right.

That's why a certain celebrity mom covered her cart in material and baby. Take that germs!

The Cross Cart

Marcia Cross and husband Tom Mahoney took the twins to Albertson's for some grocery shopping.

It doesn't look like they'll be able to fit much in the basket with Eden and Savannah hogging all of the room.

I wonder if Marcia has read this piece on cart cooties.

Jennifer Garner and Violet Start Life of Crime

Anyone that reads FameCrawler with even a passing interest knows that I loves me some Jennifer and Violet. They're so stinking sweet they make my teeth hurt. That's why I was alarmed to see this photo of them leaving CVS with a cart full of summer fun.

I happen to know from repeated firsthand experience that those carts with cars attached are not allowed to leave the store. You may not find a single person to help you while shopping, but the minute you're pushing two screaming kids in a car cart filled with cough syrup and frozen pizzas through the front door the employees come out of the woodwork.

Sir! Sir! That cart needs to stay in the store. Sir! You need to pay for those pizzas!

I guess the stars have different rules. Obviously they let her take it because at this stage of the parking lot I'm usually in full sprint.
