For those eating out:
Do you keep your mask on until you order, then eat, then put your mask back on as you're leaving?🤔

keep your mask on as you order and while you wait for your food. you can take it off to eat then put it back on before you leave. however, if you can avoid eating in the restaurant i would do so.
 

When you remove your mask, what do you do with it? Probably set it down on a surface, put it in your pocket or put it in your purse? That can contaminate it, then you'll put it back on your face.

procedures at work are that we lay a napkin on the table and place the mask on that and cover it with another napkin. i put them in my pocket or purse because i think it's worse putting it on the table where we are eating.

I'm guessing that people pull their mask down under their chin while eating. But I don't know

That would be my guess, too.

If I were eating in a restaurant I'd wear a mask and bring a clean mask in a clean paper lunch bag, plus an extra lunch bag. When my food arrived, I'd remove the mask I was wearing, put it in the empty paper bag and place that in my purse.

When finished eating I'd put on the unused mask, fold up the paper bag and put that in my purse.

Olive Garden requests that you enter with mask in place,get seated and have it on if you leave the table for any reason.
we took ours off while we checked the menu and discussed choices and ate,of course.
the menu was photocopied and tossed and every other table was used.

disposable menus are a good thing.
 
i know this is difficult for everyone but, if there's no outdoor seating and it's possible to dine at home it would be best to get it to go. it's too hard to find seating that's far enough away from others and you're increasing your exposure time by dining in. jmo.
 
at work there are staggered lunch breaks and i usually take the later one when there's less people in the cafeteria to aid in limiting myself to more exposure.

Me neither,I couldn’t be bothered with all that messing around, hardly a relaxing meal out, but I’m in the minority as restaurants and cafes are packed in my corner of the world .....
