sneezeguard

Salad bar panel

A sneezeguard is a transparent plastic or glass barrier placed over food displays to protect the food from contamination by customers' breath, sneezes, or coughs.

Standard equipment at salad bars, buffets, and cafeteria serving lines: The sneezeguard was foggy from the steam rising off the hot dishes.
