OMG I can't believe he did this?

Question

My dad dropped a piece of butter on the floor! He picked it up and washed it and then put it in a pan. The problem is, the area where he dropped it is very dirty and has chemicals(like those floor washer). Is this butter even safe to eat anymore?!!??

Answer 1

That obviously depends on exactly how dirty is it, what kind of "chemicals" there were, how well he washed it, etc etc. Are you dead? If not, it was probably safe.

Answer 2

your alive. plus chemicals and stuff burn off during heat. ever heard that if you have dirty water you boil it and then drink it? trust me it is fine. your alive arent you?

Answer 3

no because would you eat the cleaning stuff? So don't do it!

Answer 4

This is not much help, but an old Yorkshire saying goes "yer've got to eat a bit 'o muck afore yer die"

Answer 5

Well, personally I wouldn't eat it, but maybe that's just me. I'm not gonna lie... I've dropped food before, and then rinsed it off, but I can't even imagine doing that with something like butter lol  

Answer 6

eeew... thats nasty! did he eat it?! its probably gonna be dangerous if it has chemicals. contact ur doctor if he starts acting weird.

Answer 7

That's some old school stuff , when money was tight , you either washed it off or was real hungry.

Answer 8

it depends how long was it on the floor?

I'd use the 10 second rule but only if that's all the butter you have left
