Panda Express

I have been eating at this Panda Express for a number of years, and find the staff here helpful and friendly. The problem I had today is the sign that I have posted in my picture. I asked why they aren’t giving samples anymore and he, (as expected), blamed it on COVID-19. I told him it didn’t make sense that they can’t give out samples But they’re willing to hand me condiments such as the sweet-and-sour sauce that I asked for. He says it had something to do with people don’t want the servers to touch their food. That doesn’t make sense. They touch it when you pay for it it’s just that they don’t want allowed to be for free. To me it seems like a poor attempt to give less customer service and blame it on a disease where there’s no evidence that it is transferred through handling food or even human contact. It’s an airborne disease carried through coughing sneezing and the such.
