A UK supermarket has banned the use of money that was stored in shoes and bras as part of the effort to reign in the spread of COVID-19. Among other strange facts coming out of this outbreak is that some people lick their money before handing it over to the cashier.

We are doomed.

[Ed Note - Updated the story to reflect that the store is called Iceland and is, in fact, a UK supermarket.]

    I'll still be buying bagels, but I think I'm going to toast them, at least for the next few months...

    A few months might be overkill. Toasting them for a month will probably kill enough germs to make them safe.
