So if there were ants in a bowl and you poured some food in it without noticing...

Say there are some ants crawling around in a bowl and you pour yourself some cereal or other food and don't notice it until it's too late. Do you eat the food or do you throw it away and get a clean bowl without ants?

how many ants?

Throw it away.

Also, your poll options are stupid because this isn't a yes or no question.

Yes = eat it
No = don't eat it.

No. That isn't the way it works. You're asking which we do.

Either you eat it or you don't. I just gave a more descriptive description of the no answer. Heck you could stick the bowl of food on your balls if you want.

You're just being difficult anyway, you know what I mean.

i cannot answer this till i have more information.

are the ants dead?
how many?
do i have enough cereal (or whatever) to make another bowl?

The ants are alive.

I don't know how many but after you pour the food you only see a couple.

I'm not throwing question 3 into the scenario. It sounds like you're leaning to eating it anyway.

if i only see a couple... i'd probably suck it up and eat it.

how about you??

Prooobably not.

I did have a similar scenario but I saw the ants before I poured the cereal. Now I always check.

I'm also not 100% sure if I poured the cereal or not and threw it away but I'm pretty sure I didn't pour yet. Memory is sketchy at 5 am.

i hope that was a snack before bed because 5 AM is way too damn early to be waking up for breakfast.

ants would just add a little protein.
i do sorta think this is something that i can only guess what i'd do.... in the actual situation, there's no telling. haha

Nope breakfast at 5 AM I had to catch the bus at 5:30 to go to work.

I've never tasted an ant so maybe if I did and they tasted good I'd consider eating the ants.

i have to get up at 8 for class on mon/wed/friday and i sometimes think that is going to kill me. i bet you don't miss that part of work!

it'd be a good source of protein!

Yeah I think the earliest class I ever had was at 10, and that was early for me.

No I don't miss getting up at 5 to go to work, but at least it was something. Also pretty much my fault for not having a car. If I had a car it would be a 15 minute drive, work starts at 7 AM.

ah. yeah... i've had one 8 AM class. it was rough.
this semester have class at 9. it's still pretty rough.


work starting at 7. major suckage.

Work at 7 isn't that bad. The people I worked with had to go to work at 6 am. When they worked overtime they had to be at work at 5 AM. That's killer, got off work at 2:45 PM

that would signal mandatory nap time for me.

I'd throw it away despite the fact that I've probably eaten most of the ants.

They basically had to go to bed at 8 or 9 to get up in the morning. That would suck.

that would suck. i feel like i'm wasting my nights when i go to bed around midnight.




i totally just checked my cereal bowl for ants. you've ruined me.

It's a good thing to check. Like looking at your feet when you walk so you won't step in a dog turd or gum.

and a pole or sign instead =)

There are poles and signs at your feet?

if i'm looking at my feet, i'll miss the stuff face and chest level.
