I never heard of a ten-second rule. It was always five-seconds. Something can get pretty grungy in 10 seconds, but I guess it does depend on on how stiff the competition is..
The important part of the 5 second rule is that it only applies to food that you want to eat! If a piece of chocolate falls on the floor, of course it’s fine to eat. But if a piece of broccoli falls on the floor, that’s disgusting and must be disposed of immediately.

I think it was Snoopy who first stated, “Anything that falls on ths floor is legally mine”.

You commenter guys are really good this morning. On the other hand, Wolfie is fielding perfectly…

Is it during this era that they discover that this is a myth.

10? never heard of it. if he’d gone by the FIVE second rule, it would have made sense. the wolfie obviously does.

I just began trimming the winter coat off Maxie. Started with the paws and legs. Now he resembles Wolfie….SOOOOO cute.

My rule is: If it’s a potato chip or cookie, pick up and trash it.However, if it’s a $5 prescription pill —
