"However long it takes to pick up and dust off a hot turkey" rule?
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.7 -
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.2 -
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.9 -
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

The first cottage cheese I bought while using this site was dropped, SPLAT! by my wife.
Omen, I guess.

Wait. Popeye's sells turkeys? Are we talking about the fried chicken restaurant? Do they sell spicy fried turkey?0 -

Cheers, h.
Nah, my cat is a voluntary as well as an obligate carnivore. Never shown the slightest interest in fruit or veg that wasn't already incorporated into the cat food. And sometimes not even then. I well recall when I got him a can of some sort of animal protein (chicken or tuna) with green peas. Every scrap of chicken/fish went. And the peas were left in a neat little pile in the dish.3 -

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
My husband exploded a brand new large bottle of Jim Beam Black Bourbon last weekend. Our home smelt like a frat house for quite a while.1 -

thats just alcohol abuse lol3 -
Ugh, dropped one of our dinning plates on the floor this morning. Sweeping the kitchen was not on my list of things I wanted to do this morning.1

I saved a homemade cake from falling on the floor the other day but ended up with a massive thumb indentation in it from catching it. My husband ate that part and said it was the best piece because it had my thumbprint.8

These stories are great LOL!
One day my husband was microwaving a bowl of spaghetti and the dog was sitting below him begging for food, mouth open, drooling. When my husband went to pick up the spaghetti out of the microwave he dropped it and it rained spaghetti on the dogs face lol, the dogs expression was priceless! It was just pure surprise he couldn’t believe my husband just dumped it on him haha. My husband was SO upset, I felt bad but just couldn’t stop laughing 😂.
Another story nothing to do with dropping food but once my brother burnt a hole in a plastic colander making grilled cheese...... just think about that for a second. 🤭5 -
I was working in a burger joint as a teenager, and dropped a 5 gallon bucket of fry sauce. There was fry sauce everywhere, including dripping from the ceiling. Cleaned most of it, but there was no way to reach the ceiling to clean it up. That fry sauce stayed on the ceiling the entire time I worked there and beyond.1

I wasn't sure how they cooked them so I looked them up.
"The turkeys range from about 10 to 14 pounds. They're marinated with a blend of Louisiana seasonings, slow-roasted, and then flash-fried for a crispy skin."
They're pretty expensive compared to cooking it yourself, but I find it worth it. I know I am getting a good turkey and it doesn't have to cook as long so it frees up the oven. And I don't spill brine all over the kitchen!3
