Creator's Key Takeaways

Some of these cruise ship foods might upset your stomach. Others could ruin your whole vacation.

That ketchup pump, you're not the first person to touch it. And while cruise lines recommend washing hands before entering, not everyone follows the rules.

Those eggs sitting under heat lamps in the buffet. They're often made from powder. Yep. Not fresh cracked, powdered.

That machine lever isn't as innocent as it looks. Thousands of fingers, including sticky little hands, grab that handle every single day.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Avoid communal condiment pumps due to hygiene risks.
Stick to sealed bottled water when off the ship.
Order eggs from made-to-order stations instead of buffet trays.
Use a napkin or bowl for soft serve to reduce contact.
Pace yourself with bread baskets to save room for main courses.
