Does the 5-second rule count for gum?!


Question: Does the 5-second rule count for gum!?
When a person drops food they pick it up and eat it before it stays on the ground for 5 seconds!. Does it apply to gum too!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
I really don't reccommend eating anything off the floor!.
But, gum is very sticky and basically whatever it lands on will stick to it, which means you may end up eating dirt!.!.!.
It's happened before, it isn't a pleasant experience, realising along with your floor-gum you now also have dirt and old food and god knows what else in your mouth!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

i wouldnt recommend using that rule at all for gum because its wet and sticky and can pick up germs u dont even see!. and stuff like hair could be on it as well!.
not a smart idea!.
get a new piece!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

It doesn't apply at all!. Once it hits the ground, all the germs get on whatever you dropped!. Throw it out!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

that rule doesn't work, it's just a disguisting reason to eat something that has hit the ground!. sorry to burst your bubble!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
