If flies land on your food, do you still eat it?

no way. youre asking to get e-coli doing that. flies land on shit then they land on your food

Yep.

I do.

Imagine the millions of microbes that you do not see that land on your food constantly.

No!

no! everywhere they land, they spit and if they were just on a pile of poop, well there ya go...poop spit on yer food, so no!

Nope, I have a severe fly phobia and I have thrown several meals away. The way I see it, sometime during the day that fly was on shit or something rotten at some point. And cookouts... Hell no!

Only if I clean the fly first.

OMG you guys not gonna make it in SHTF

I am currently at battle with these micro flies that are outside and inside...I'm a very clean person, keep a clean house, but those bastards are everywhere...nat size flies.....

If you set your drink down, there are drowned nats or flies in it in a minute...you can't leave anything exposed...I've never see it like this....

I made up some indoor bug spray with a misting bottle...I think after a week I am about to win the battle....DO NOT LEAVE ANYTHING OF FOOD VALUE EXPOSED!

Don't even leave an empty tea glass uncovered...just the few drops of liquid, if sweetened breeds those tiny bastards....

yes.

Flies commit suicide in my beer. Its a case for csi imo :-)

I see no reason to live in an outhouse right now....if that's what you like, more power to you.

OP's house is probably totally infested. Grody to the Mexican.

no kidding, I work at a animal hospital and about 10 or more flies are on one piece of tasty dog shit... if one them bad boys lands on my food, its good riddance.

I know ;-)

oh you like chocolate covered flies?

Meh, yeah.

If you've ever been to an outdoor BBQ, I guarantee flies have landed on at least 90% of the food.

Flies love BBQ as much as humans. Especially potato salad, I always see the damn flies on the potato salad.

You're welcome in my bunker cutie!

gtfo

it's a trap!!!

If i don't know about I will probably eat it.

Yea, last week, she told me to "feck off"....I didn't need a translator....but I gathered her meaning...LOL

Roll over Bethoven :-)

Im packin :-)

Doesn't bother me a bit.

Yes, Sometimes I think twice about it.
but when you really think about it and if you were living in a post apocalyptic world and somehow you managed to slaughter a healthy beef cow. Would you be worried about a fly landing on your steak? No, you wouldn't even think twice about eating it.
Do you think poor people think twice if a fly lands on their food?

I know I wouldn't.

It depends on your circumstances.

Again I will say OP. and this is truth. It depends on what your standards are. If you are middle class you probably wouldn't worry about it that much. If you were rich you would get angry and not eat it.

No.
