What could be the cause of candy samples tested positive for staphylococcus aureus?
In a press conference on June 16, 2015, FDA announced that the candy samples were tested positive for staphylococcus aureus, a bacteria commonly found on human skin.
What would be the real cause of contamination???
Your thoughts and suggestions please

My guess - a student and their assignment :smile:
This could be
A) touching finished goods with bare hands
B) personnel scratching head/face/arms and then handling product
C) Not washing hands
D) lack of hairnets and/or hair falling in the batch
E) sneezing without covering
Staph is present on a lot of humans, and is particularly fond of hair follicles
