Did you know that on average, homefires started by cooking equipment end up killing 480 people per year? Those same fires injured almost 5,000 people and caused $724,00,000.00 in damage. I didn't know that.

How about -- did you know that the average cutting board 200% more fecal bacteria than your toilet seat? Damn, maybe I should be cutting veggies on that Fisher Price bedpan I got stashed in my closet?

If I haven't completely killed your buzz for the day, maybe I can tell you that it takes only as few as 10 bacteria to make people sick, and on average, your sponge or counter-wiping cloth has 134,630 bacteria. Your kitchen faucet handle has 13,227 bacteria.

Full disclosure, it looks like a kitchen supply store put together this infographic, but it doesn't mean their information is flawed or without sources. Just remember, keep your hands off the wrong side of that knife!
