No Carpets in Restaurants

Carpets don't belong in restaurants.
The other day I went to a fast food restaurant that had carpets in the main dining area. To be honest, I didn't even notice it at first. I just sat down and started eating, until I started to notice an odd smell. I eventually realized the smell was coming from the carpet. It was not only smelling up the whole place, but it felt a bit sticky, like an old movie theater.
That's when I started to imagine how often food and drinks fall on the floor and soak into the carpet. Night after night, customers drop a little soda here and there, a few french fries, a pickle, maybe even a few dairy products. Then I picture the staff vacuuming the surface, and having it shampooed from time to time.
By contrast, restaurants with hard floors end each shift with cleaning the entire floor with a big commercial mop full of bleach.
If I owned a restaurant, there's no way I'd use carpet on the floors. It's just plain wrong.
Doesn't this look a lot cleaner?
