Rule #5

There is no rule #4

Q: How did we get from not talking about fight club to rule number five?

A: Oh! rule #5 states that there is no rule #4. That makes sense.

5 second rule

When one accidently drops food, not held in a container or wrapper, on the ground. The rule states that if you pick it up within 5 seconds, it won't be contaminated. There is also a '10 second rule' variation. Unfortunately, both rules are urban legends -- The speed with which you can pick the food article back up has no bearing on whether it may receive germs.

5 second rule

The '5 second rule' applies when food comes into contact with an object that is tainted. If it is removed from the tainted object in 5 seconds or less, then the food is considered safe for human consumption and eaten as if nothing happened. If it stays on the tainted object for more than 5 seconds then it is considered unfit for human consumption and is discarded.

I'll bet that fat kid eats the cookie he dropped on the floor even though the 5 second rule is up.
