A food service worker has lifted the lid on the secret unhygienic restaurant practices she has seen firsthand, from the dirty dishrags that are used to clean tables to the leftover crust that gets scraped off plates. 

TikTok user @tequila.9 has gone viral after posting a stitched response to @kuyyannunu's video about restaurant dishwashers, claiming dishware and cutlery merely get rinsed or scraped if they come out still covered in food.

'I apologized in advance for this info,' she captioned the eye-opening 'I promise you that that fork you're eating with came out of the washer with spinach on it that just got rinsed off,' she said at the start of her nearly 30-second rant.

 'I promise you that the table you're eating off of only got wiped down with a stank kitchen rag that was wet from dirty dishwater,' she continued. 'I promise that whoever set your table was scraping crust off your plate with nails immediately before you used it. 'And I'm willing to be that if the health department showed up to the restaurant you're eating at right now, everybody in the kitchen would be going crazy in the walk-in fridge changing all the dates on the food.'The video has earned more than 4.2 million views and 7,200 comments since it was posted last week — and there where were plenty of restaurant employees who backed up her claims. 'It's the same everywhere. It's why I won't work at my favorite places. I choose to be blissfully UNAWARE,' one person wrote, while another added, 'I promise you that she's telling the truth.'
