LOL the bar peanut bowl is a viral and bacteria playground. Absolutely disgusting.

OMFG. But wait... the peanuts are in a shell, yo. Just don't lick the bowl, shells or eat loose nuts. ;)

Every bar I've been to gives you your own bowl of peanuts/pretzels. I've never seen a "community bowl." Ewww.

HSV-1 can also be transmitted to other areas of the body such as the eyes, fingers, and genital area. Your "friend" is not a smart girl if she doesn't realize this.

It boggles the mind since she's a microbiology student.
