        Very few restaurants have them (especially those without bars), and the ones that do never clean the pump head so it’s always covered in dirt and bacteria. At least I know that the soda fountain nozzle(s) gets cleaned nightly at most restaurants. But nobody ever seems to sanitize the flavor pumps.

          Yeah, I don’t think I’ve seen them at restaurants, but I have seen them at convenience stores a ton. Why they didn’t have the flavor shots has always confused me, because that has been the difference between me getting a soda and not.

        Plastic pumps separate from the fountain? I’ve seen them once or twice but I couldn’t name a chain that I’ve been to which has those. But also you’d have to know the ideal ratio of syrup to base soda rather than have it pre-mixed.
