If you drop food on the floor do you toss it out, or follow the five second rule?

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.

I dont waste food I like.

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.

Depends on the floor and the food..

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.

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

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 alute:
01-30-2006, 05:54 PM
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?
02-01-2006, 05:14 PM
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.
02-02-2006, 12:05 PM
5 second rule on most food
