An HVACR (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning) worker exposed the amount of filth restaurants often allow their ice machines to simply exist in.

Our original poster has a channel full of videos of the most disgusting ice machines he has ever come across.

He strongly advises, in each video, that you order your restaurant beverage without any ice.
