Question

I sprayed some bowls with clorox clean-up cleaner with bleach and I accidently ate some cereal off of it with my 5 yr old son. I called poison control they said it shouldn't be bad but I am still nervous. What can I do to relax or what should I look for?

Watch for him throwing up or anything like that, However, it should NOT be a problem.

Answer 2

Don't anticipate a problem and there won't be one!

Answer 3

if you haven't had a symptom you should be fine...so relax and be more cautious next time...

Answer 4

Answer 7

Poison Control is essentially correct.

Clorox Clean Up begins to break down within minutes of coming into contact with the organic material it's intended to destroy.  Clorox Clean Up is sodium hypochlorite, and it breaks down into salt and water shortly after you spray it on a surface.  This type of cleaner is intended to kill pathogens within 5 minutes, so it's probably safe shortly after that.

You don't mention how much time elapsed between the time you sprayed the dishes and used them, but I agree with the other posters--listen to Poison Control.
