On the other hand, the sanitation of the place (p-value = 0.586) was not correlated. The results of Fisher's test analysis showed that there was no relationship between utensil sanitation and the number of germs on cutlery (p-value = 0,600), utensil washing technique (p-value = 0,083), hand washing technique (p-value = 1,000) and the germ number of cutleries. (plate). Conclusion: There is a relationship between handler hygiene and storage sanitation with the number of germs on cutlery (plates) in a food stall, Wirogunan Village, Yogyakarta City.]]>
