Double Dipping and the Five-Second Rule

So it turns out that double dipping really IS kind of gross. And that the five-second rule isn’t really true.

That’s why when I double-dip (and I am totally a double dipper - proud of it, too), I employ this little trick, where I only double-dip if I turn the chip around and use the part I didn’t eat off of. If I can’t do that, I don’t re-dip.

Your safest bet? Put your own dip on your own plate. And as far as the five-second rule? It’s probably time to get a dog.

    So dipping the carrot stick into the ranch dressing, licking it off than then dipping it in again, is REALLY bad, right? Hmmmm . . . . poor Annie.
