Went into the Grey Lynn store about two months ago to purchase some cakes. The lady behind the counter promptly using her gloved hand to pick the cake I ordered and straight into the box. I was horrified!! It would have been okay had she not used the same glove she was wearing on anything else such as opening/closing cabinet door, touching the handle, pen, etc. And then with the same glove, touching the food/cake with it.

Get a clue Farro's, or we'll...
