4 common health myths— busted

Personally, I never quite trusted that 5-second food-dropped-on-the-floor rule, and I think it's rude to double-dip a chip (just take another!). But how bad are these things, really? To find out, I asked experts to reveal the truth behind some of the most common health rumors still making their way 'round the watercooler (and the Internet). Here's what you need to worry about, what you don't, and what's just plain gross. (Hint: The critters living on your kitchen floor can't tell time.)

There was a show on the Food Network channel not two months ago that busted some of the same things.

Our rule is you never eat anything off the floor in our house - but it's safe to at Grandma's! J/K! LOL! That woman sweeps and mops her floors several times a day.

In this house, the 5-second rule only applies to things that are not moist or sticky, i.e. jelly beans, etc. Then again, most of the house is carpeted, so things that are moist and/or sticky tend to get furry when you drop them, and we never eat furry food.

Most times, the kids pull the furry off the food. (We have two cats.)

I have 3 dogs and a cat - everything here is furry whether you want it to be or not!

We should not easily trust on such type of health rumors until we don't have complete information about them.
