    This is why America is better. Every restraunt and store has publicly available bathrooms.

        Hell, even WMATA, the subway rail system in Washington DC, does not have public restrooms. So people piss and shit in the elevators.

        Per us health code if you have indoor seating and can eat at the place you are required to have a restroom available to customers, if you do not you can get shut down.

            Looks like I remembered wrong, but it is a requirement in Michigan, so, varies state by state. You’re required if you have a maximum occupancy of 15 or more looks like

        I just dumped out in the 7/11’s bathroom down the street from my house over the weekend.

          Odd, almost every 7-11 I’ve been to either flat out says no or they’re “permanently broken”

      Every place where you can sit down to eat or drink is required to have one in Germany.

      Only restaurants in my experience. Most stores here don’t have public bathrooms.

        This is probably one of those “varies by state” things, as usual, but in my state anything classed as a restaurant on its business license must provide a bathroom. Sometimes this causes them considerable inconvenience, and sometimes you wouldn’t want to use it anyway, but it is there.

          Yeah that’s what I was saying. I think it’s any place that serves prepared food or drink is required here in Ohio. But I think they can restrict use to customers only.
