  Q: I'm a germaphobe and dread summer cookouts. Every year, burgers and dogs and potato salad, already set out, so I subsist on chips and beer. Should I just bring my own food? A: Don't bring a solo, pre-made hot dog for yourself. That's weird

  Ask The Salty Waitress: I'm afraid my neighbor's cookout food could make me sick

  Dear Salty, I'm a germaphobe in general, and summer cookouts can make me nervous. Last year I went to my neighbors' Fourth Of July party and saw they'd already set out the burgers, hot dogs, salads, etc. who knows when, and left them in the sun. I stuck to potato chips and beer and didn't really eat much. I don't want to seem rude but I don't think I could eat potato salad that's been in the sun for hours. Am I overreacting? How can I avoid the suspicious salad but not offend people? Can I start bringing my own food? Thanks, No Potato Salad
