        Didn't a study come out 6 mo. ago saying 5 sec. rule is at least partially valid? Needed a new study to say partially invalid? 🤔

        kids should be exposed to germs at a young age. It builds up their natural defences. The world is too sterilised for too many.

        If I drop a potato chip in a pile of dog crap, how long do I wait before you will grab it and eat it? THAT's the rule.
