Research (http://web.aces.uiuc.edu/news/list.cfm?NID=2467) on the validity of it.

There are people that don't know about the 5-second rule? Where?

My 5-second rule only applies if it is a dry food. For some reason, in my tiny pea brain, wet foods will swab off some grunge before you pick it up. Dry foods allow you to brush off any attracted particles before consumption.

I am not too picky. I don't care if people double dip the salsa at a dinner table, but not at a party where I don't know the other people.

I think your five second rule is pretty common. I have no trouble picking up candy, popcorn. But, there is no chance that I would pick up an ice cube and throw it into a glass.

I'd have to say, you just replied for the both of us.


Although, I know a guy who licks his knife after putting it in the jelly jar....then puts it in the peanut butter jar. Obviously, he does it to keep jelly from getting in there when all he's doing is reminding me that he's putting freaking spit in the peanut butter jar. Eh, no thanks. I think I'm just grossed out by his particular spit though; I've been known to let my dog lap beer out of my mouth and then drink what's left. And for the record, I've also let a few different people drop loogies in my mouth too. Gross you out yet? I've got more.

Now, Zens, have you ever done THAT?

Honestly, no. I get annoyed when I have my own "loogies".

But do you really want to talk about the places that my mouth has been? /forums/images/icons/wink.gif Nope. Didn't think so.

When I go hiking and food is scarce, it turns into the 20 minute rule.

I have a funny story about "loogies." I think it might be apropriate right now.

Ok, my frien said to me that he's good at that thing you do with your spit where you suck it back in your mouth before it hits the ground, so I say "Prove it."

He sticks his hea out of the window of my second story apartment, drops one on a bald guys head and sucks it back up. So we made a deal, if he can do one right over my face, I would give him 10 bucks, if it drops, he gives me 10 bucks and I get to punch him. Well, I lay down on the sidewalk outside, he hawks up a hugh one and shoots it down on my face and sprints away before I have the spit off my face. I guess the jackass forgot we work together cause I got back at him. I went and switched all the keys on his keyboard around.

5 second rule, for me it is like a 10 minute rule.

For me it depends on the floor.

The floor of a Men's restroom at Perkins, no way will I eat anything that lands there.

A floor in Martha Stewerts kitchin/ Indefinate rule.


As long as we are on the topic of "rules" do you guys go by the 24 hour rule? Beer left in my fridge for 24 hours becomes mine at this point. Some friends get pissed, but it's their fault for leaving it there in the first place!

Well, as far as beer goes, if someone leaves beer in my fridge and don't say, "I'll get it tomorrow." it is mine.

Okay, I will tell a story.

I was at Famous Dave's about a year back, and I was with a bunch of friends, and I was in a "goofy" mood.

I just finished a full rack and some chicken, when I saw the waitress walk by with a half un-eaten rack of ribs. What I mean by "un-eaten" is that whoever ordered the ribs attempted to eat them, but the bones were not clean yet.

I then stopped the waitress, took the rack off of her tray, and continued to eat the rest of the ribs, to everyones surprise.

Next thing I know, I am surrounded by waitresses and cooks, daring me to finish ribs, drink half-finished beers, etc.

Needless to say, I left very full, and very drunk!

I hope you enjoyed this story!
