Answer 1

A visitor came to your house and drank directly from the milk carton?  How class-less is that person.  You all need to find some new friends!  Yuck.

Answer 2

Probablly just you are grossed out. However, some diseases can be passed that way. Ask the person to use a glass next time.

Answer 3

that is sick and that isn't a phobia that is just grossed out!!!!!!!!

Answer 4

it's just rude and inconsiderate.  Unless they have some really contagious condition, you're probably ok, but it is just bad manners.

Answer 5

Ew that is just gross considering peoples spit is left behind in the milk and on the milk carton/container doing that.

Answer 6

it introduces bacteria that spoils the milk (or any other drink) quickly.   It is the same spitting in the milk...

Answer 7

REALLY gross

Answer 8

If you think about it, regardless of what anyone drinks out of, whether it's a cup, straw, bowl or even a spoon, whatever they use to drink out of still touches the inside of their lips.  The human mouth is said to have more bacteria in it than a dog's mouth, and it's best to keep that bacteria to yourself, since because it's from your body, you can't get sick off it.  However, if someone else drinks milk that has someone else's mouth bacteria in it, they have a pretty high chance of catching a sickness if that last person had one.

Plus, yeah, it's not a good feeling knowing the milk in your cereal has someone's plaque in it.

Answer 9

it can taint the milk, absolutely,if there is back wash.

I drink out of the milk carton all the time, but i pour it into my mouth i dont touch the milk carton at all.

even I wouldnt drink it if i saw someone with their lips around it suckin it out. i might laugh, then tell them to go buy more.

Answer 10

No, it's not a phobia! It's disgusting! I would never drink anything if someone had just drank straight from the container or bottle- especially milk! Doing that with a dairy product is like 10X more gross than any other drink.

Answer 11

It's not considered proper hygiene. Any time you drink from a container like that, some of the milk from inside your mouth goes back into the container. (back wash) So any germs or whatever that person had are now in the container with the rest of the milk, and can easily spread or multiply.

Whoever did this in another person's home is both ignorant and inconsiderate. Make that person buy a new carton of milk to replace the one he spoiled. And if he won't, just don't ever invite him into the house any more.

Answer 12

That is not just unsanitary, (and rude) it is gross.

It is not a phobia.  

A phobia (from Greek: φόβος, phobos, "fear"), is an irrational, intense, persistent fear of certain situations, activities, things, or persons. The main symptom of this disorder is the excessive, unreasonable desire to avoid the feared subject. When the fear is beyond one's control, or if the fear is interfering with daily life, then a diagnosis under one of the anxiety disorders can be made.

If someone did that in my house they would be told to go buy more milk after I slapped them up side they back of their head!

Answer 13

no i wouldnt wanna drink from it either

but im like a complete germ-a-phob

Answer 14

Hey heyheyy ! you seem pretty cool.. not gunna lie .

i personally enjoy chocolate milk better ...thank you for asking.

<3333 MARRY ME ?!?!?! ;D

Answer 15

it could be considered a phobia if the reason you don't want to drink out of it anymore is because you're afraid you'll get sick. but if the reason is because you don't want to swap spit than you're just grossed out.

Answer 16

Ummm. I don't think so. Maybe you just think other people's spit is icky.

Answer 17

dont worry just drink it most people worry too much trust me ive been doin it 13years and ive never gotten sick because of that

im 13 lol

Answer 18

just grossed out..

haha

Answer 19

that is common but i do not think that it is totally justifiable because a persons immune system is built up by exposure to germs and milk is freaking expensive, don't waste it!

Answer 20

That is uncool to drink from someone else's carton.  I drink from my own carton.  Tell this person that they just bought this carton of milk and demand payment from them.

Answer 21

GROSSED OUT
