If it helps, I worked in restaurants for eight years and at least every other year, someone would forget how thermal shock works and put a hot glass directly into the ice maker, so we’d clean it thoroughly then.

So you know, not oversight or intention, but stupidity leads to sporadic cleaning.

I don’t take ice in restaurants either

Sporadic cleaning, or bits of glass in your drink...

I’ve worked for some garbo places, but all of them shut the ice machine down immediately for super thorough and annoying cleaning. Ice and glass are too hard to tell apart and the dangers of ice in a drink are too high for even the greediest managers I’ve had to want to chance it.

Someone out there might risk it, but it’s a pretty obvious thing to avoid

I am lucky I generally dislike ice anyway I suppose
