I dropped my bagel on the floor

[gza]

Do you believe in something like the 5 second rule?

I'm eating it anyway because I don't waste bagels.

Eating it won't be as bad as the medium rare roast chicken I ate once.

If its outside, bin it.

Hm. The CDC says the former takes from one to five minutes to do that. I think I'll just toss whatever fell.

It depends on how clean the floor was.

Generally floors that are reasonably clean don't have much germs. There are probably more bacteria and germs on someone's smart phone than the floors.

The 5 second rule is a myth. The instant it comes in contact, it gets dirty.

And what do you value more? Whatever fell, or your health?

Fortunately, eating the food is better for both.

Unless you're heating up a bagel in, like, a sewer or something.
