Too many choices. 5 seconds are fine by me as long as the floor is not noticeably dirty.....or it's a bathroom. But then again, why am I eating in the bathroom.

What I find astonishing is that two more people are willing to eat a biscuit that falls on a clean floor than are willing to eat a rib that fell on a clean floor.
Either we have some vegetarians or idiots on the board... |

I didn't vote that way, but maybe they are still wary of the sauce on the rib picking up crap (though the floor is clean), compared to the solid biscuit coming up unscathed?

What is the deal with today's liberal mindset? A rule is a rule! We can't just manufacture execptions out of thin air just because we feel like it. This kind of tampering with established rule of law, just because it is popular will be the ruin of our society. When the Founding Fathers put the 5 second rule in the Constitution it was because they had just fought a war against British oppression and they knew that there was no divine right of Kings to eat anything off the floor regardless of how long it had been there. The Framers of the Constitution also knew that the Northern tradition of waste not-want not had already been codified in the MayFlower Compact. That is why we, privileged by God himself to be Americans, have a full five seconds to pick up and eat things off the floor, whenever, wherever. Why do you morally bankrupt secular humanists insist on depriving us of our God given, Constitutional rights?

There are no exceptions to the 5 second rule. Period. Would I eat something that fell in a urinal? I don't eat in the bathroom so I wouldn't be in that situation. The only time that food can not be eaten after taking a fall is if the food item is destroyed to the point it can not be consumed. Beer spilling in the grass, pudding dropped on the floor, etc... The foo dmust be totally destroyed though. You drop a bagel cream cheese side down in the grass, you wipe off the cream cheese and continue eating. You drop pizza face down in the dirt, take of the cheese and eat the rest.
