s this really that big of a concern, though? Germs are everywhere, from cell phones to computer keyboards. They're always going to be present, so how bad could a shopping cart be?
Duberg cites Gerba's findings for the answer: "[There are] 138,00 total bacteria per square inch of a shopping cart — an amount which exceeds the number of bacteria in the average public restroom," she says. "These are fecal bacteria capable of causing illness."
