Nothing gets your metabolism going like a healthy breakfast you have to pick up off the floor!

I swear those containers are designed to spring open and disperse berries as efficiently as possible.18

Lol 5 second rule!6

Do some squats while picking them up. Bonus!19

Whew, glad this isn't a mushroom-chocolate-greens-keto-coffee thread!16

Bummer! I feel you. I lose food on the floor constantly, but it's because I'm such a klutzy person. XDkshama2001 wrote: »Whew, glad this isn't a mushroom-chocolate-greens-keto-coffee thread!
LOL. I was hesitant to click because I've read through so many coffee threads, I wasn't quite sure what I was going to discover. (well, not really as @concordancia is a seasoned veteran of the forums - so I wasn't too concerned)

Eh, your floor looks pretty clean to me! You may find blueberry-raisins the next time you move the fridge though

This is when you wake the cat out of a deep sleep and set it loose in the kitchen, (More efficient than a Roomba.) and are glad you weren’t having an omelette.

One time I dropped a jar of mayonnaise on my kitchen floor and it exploded everywhere. I definitely burned more calories cleaning it off the floor, walls, and appliances than I would have consumed with the chicken salad I was trying to make.2

That's when I call in the dogs and go back to bed!5

My son once exploded bottle of root beer in the kitchen. I think there will still be sticky spots when we eventually gut it for renovation

Yes! I have discovered the perfect yogurt to walnut to berry ratio, but it usually doesn't involve cleaning the floor before breakfast.8 -
I wish I could find the thread...
I frequent a cooking forum as well. A number a years ago a poster told a story about making home made ghost pepper hot sauce. They put hot(temperature) ghost pepper sauce in a blender and turned it on without holding the lid. Some folks can guess what happened - it blew the lid and "painted" the kitchen with GHOST PEPPER sauce. The poster said it was like a chemical warfare zone - they couldn't breathe - but of course had to clean it up. It was one of the most hilarious kitchen comedies I have ever read about.13 -
I was once making a flan which included heating sugar into a caramel sauce. Being young, and very dumb, I thought I could heat a glass pyrex dish on the burner. It didn't take long for the pyrex dish to explode. I had hot, sticky caramel sauce all over the kitchen, floor and ceiling. Dang that was a mess. Not sure how I managed to not get hurt.3

I dropped a hard boiled egg the other day and just started crying.7

That was my reaction when my husband bumped into my wine rack and THREE bottles crashed to the floor. 9 -
I love how this thread has become “What’s the worst thing you ever dropped on the floor” 8

Me too! So far I think ghost pepper is worst, but being a second-hand story, my vote is for Pyrex caramel sauce.3 -
The worst thing I ever dropped on the floor was the Christmas turkey.
Perfectly stuffed and cooked.
With 20 people in the dining room waiting for it. 15 -

Yuppers.3 -
The memory of that turkey hitting the floor, sliding, while spewing stuffing everywhere will haunt me forever.
It made the coolest noise, however.

I may not have dropped any serious food on the ground that I can remember... But I did have an incident after boiling corned beef one time...
Went to dump the water out(it was heavy and I wanted to get rid of it ASAP), it proceeded to splatter out at me and burn my stomach(like a bullseye)... Ouch!!! Needless to say, I turned around and told my brother to finish cooking, I was done!1 -

A few months ago I dropped all my fries from McDonald's on the floor and immediately burst into tears.

It is so much worse when you drop part of a meal on the floor that has been carefully weighed and logged. The dilemma of the best course of action is real.11

I had a lemon merengue pie explode on my mom and I once. (She accidentally set it on a hot burner). 10/10 do not reccommend. I also had one randomly explode coming out of the oven. Apparently older pyrex can get stress fractures causing them to explode with little temperature differences. Like from a hot oven to a room temperature stove.4

Me and my family were all hangry and arguing and had just got Subway, and my husband dropped one of the subs he'd unwrapped on the ground.
I ate it.
And nothing bad happened.

I decided to brine the turkey one year. Thanksgiving morning I went to get it and dropped it, brine went EVERYWHERE. I just buy a turkey from Popeye's every year now.2
