Does the 5-Second Rule Still Apply at the Fair?

It’s the first Saturday of the Fair…super busy…you waited in line for 10 minutes to get a corndog…spent the $7…and now you have it….until…

it falls out of your hand…

…and lands on the sidewalk.

You act fast and scoop it up in less than 5 seconds. Now you face your biggest dilemma. Do you eat it? Is it done-zo? Do you risk it or power on through?

Your precious corn dog has fallen onto the sidewalk at the State Fair…does the 5 second rule still apply?
