What Doesn't Kill Your Kid Just Makes Him Stronger
-
We know from research that the "five-second rule" is bogus -- food picks up possibly dangerous bacteria the moment it hits the floor. But surveys show that, of all people, parents are especially accepting of the "rule," maybe because their kids drop food all the time. And I wonder if it's also because, for the most part, kids will eat stuff that fell on the floor and not get sick. Maybe it builds immunity.
