Believe it… you must have done this like us, that chips, chocolates or perhaps hot samosa fell down… and you immediately looked up, picked it up quickly, and put it in your mouth!
Why? Because you must have said in your heart: ‘It’s not five seconds … can be eaten right now!’
But… If we ask you that this five second roll is just a lie? Yes, you have been fooling the hands of a traumatic trap for years!
“Khan Roll” – the beginning of the crime!
Where did this five -second strange law finally come from?
For the first time in 1995, this principle came to light, but its original story has been connected in the twelfth century, from the time of Genghis Khan.
Yes! There was a principle in the court of the legendary Mongol conqueror Genghis Khan: “The food made for Khan is so pure that even if it falls on the ground, it is still capable of eating!”
Even if the food particles stay on the floor – just look at the eyes, and eat!
There was no concept of germs at that time. Cleaning meant: “Clean what you see … the rest of Allah Lord!”
But then science said: “Khan, you were wrong!”
In the nineteenth century, the Loui Pascher shocked the world of science.
He said that the germs are not only present, but they are everywhere! In the air, on the hands, in the clothes, and on the ground too!
But nevertheless, the lie of five seconds survived for centuries.
And then the devastating research!
In 2016, Professor Donald Scheffer, an American scientist, blew up a five -second role.
He conducted a study for two years, which dropped various food items such as butter bread, without butter bread, strawberry candy and watermelon on different levels: wood, tile, steel, and even on the carpet.
And each time time changed: one, five, thirty, and three hundred seconds. A total of 2560 experienced.
Result?
Whatever quickly lift the food from the ground – he can’t escape germs!
Some interesting facts:
Surprisingly, the transfer of germs on the carpet was the lowest. Because its level is low, and the food is less touched.
Watermelon turned out to be the most germs sucking thing! Because it is wet, and germs need moisture to transfer.
Dry things like toffee or bread are slightly germs, but “low” does not mean “zero”!
So, what to do next time?
When the toffees, chips or fries fall down, instead of counting “five seconds”, put it straight into the trash.
Because germs do not appear, but your stomach, your health, your responsibility.
