Dropping food on the floor Question...
#1
If you drop food on the floor do you toss it out, or follow the five second rule?

#4

#5
I'm with Bat. Depends on the floor, how clean the floor is, and who the home belongs to.

If I am in public, definetly not but at a friend's or relative's house, it depends.
#6
I dont waste food I like. Smile
#7
It depends on the type of food and floor. With the right type of food and floor conditions I defer to the 10 second rule.
#8
Depends on the floor and the food..
#9
Say you drop a carmel candy that you already had in your mouth and had slober all over it into carpet, HELL no I wouldn't eat it but an M&M on a hardwood floor that looks clean, I would.

The germs aren't slow, times are hard and the money's tight. I'd steal food from a mouse right now.

LOL now that would be a challenge and a site to see...
#16
For me it depends on how clean the floor is and the type of food I'm eating. If I drop candy or something here at my house I'll eat it because we have hardwood floors in all the rooms but 3.
#17
Anyone watch Myth Busters? They did a segment on the 5 second rule. There were more bacteria grown on their sample after 5 seconds than if not dropped at all so Myth Busted

#20

#21

#22

FOR ME IT DEPENDS UPON THE FOOD IN QUESTION. IF I HAPPEN TO DROP A STEAK IN THE FLOOR, IT IS A RACE BETWEEN ME AND THE DOG. HOT DOG...HE CAN HAVE IT. :CE_DP_Ste Confusedalute:
#27
Hell yeah. I don't care where or what the place looks like. Food is hard to come by in foreign countries so why waste it here?
#28
As long as whatever I dropped doesn't have any visible dirt or any such thing on it then I apply the 10 second rule also...unless it falls to a hard to reach place or rolls across the floor and I have to extend it to the 30 second rule.
#29
5 second rule on most food
