Licking the spoon

Not only play in the dirt, but eat it! I used to eat dirt as a child. I loved it - I can still remember the gritty feel in my mouth and the earthy taste. I may have some for lunch today.

Spoon licker here. If you are worried, just give me the spoon, the beaters, the bowl. I'll gladly get rid of that for you.

My preferences...

Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough and Brownie Batter

NO!!! I tell the kid it's poison, then walk into a different room and lick it off myself, with a happy, dreamy nostalgic look on my face....

Best answer in this entire thread!!

Wait... why? What's wrong with eating raw eggs? I've always heard it's healthy and is full of... protien.. or something?

Chance of food poisoning by salmonella bacteria.

Haha, thanks
And oooh? I must be deprived or something but I have heard of salmonella being found in tons of other things.. but never in eggs!
Hmm. Store-bought eggs only, right?
Darn, I wish I hadn't given my Dutch Bantam hens away..
Even if their eggs were the size of a quarter, at least they weren't contaminated...
