How to put a dipper... I mean damper on Super Bowl

So science has proved that Seinfeld was right after all. It's really not cool to double dip.

They found that three to six double dips transferred about 10,000 bacteria from an eater's mouth to the remaining dip sample.

:eek:
eeeewwwwww.....

ewwww, gross! I'm a bit of a germ-a-phobe so I don't dip at parties. People are gross creatures. :p I only double dip with DH. I figure living together and all, I share most of his germies anyway. :)

I helped out at a friends open house once and 4 days later had the worst cold ever! i swear it was from eating the dips. I stay away from those tables now. Unless I am the first one or it is not a dip type food. It was a really bad cold. And I had to go to a job and drive through the mountains. Oh the pain in my ears!

Yuck. But did they really need to do a study to figure out that double dipping is an unsanitary thing to do? Seems like common sense to me. You wouldn't spit in the dip, so why would you stick a chip that's already been in your mouth into the dip?
