LOL. We have the 'six second' rule in our house. If
it's on the floor for less than 6 seconds it's still
safe to eat. Longer than that and it either goes in
the garbage or we feed it to the cats, whichever is
most appropriate. I don't know where the rule came
from, but my husband has been using it for as long as
I've known him. He's a cook, I wonder if they do this
at work....?

Sheryll, who knows that the cats can get to food on
the floor faster than she can
