Daisy,

You have, in a way, answered your own questions.

There is a very real hazard from bacterial contamination, and anti bacterial cleaners available to the general public are probably not effective enough against many common pathogens and certainly would not be considered an effective solution if the problem were translated to the commercial world.

As far as regular cleaning is concerned, even if you remember to do it every day, do you want anti-bac cleaners in almost direct contact with your food?


The retailer offered you a way out with a refund - I'd have taken it if I were in your position.
