“Where’s that national award I
won for you?” my daughter asked.
“My plaques are in the boxes in
my closet,” I said.
I think I might wrap it and give
her the plaque this year for her high
school graduation. She and the rest of
my family certainly have inspired me
many times in the years I have writ-
ten this column.
I should have guessed my daugh-
ter would go On to enjoy theater roles
and comedy improvisation because
of this award-winning “scene.” I’ve
updated the food safety tips.
“Would you like pancakes
today?” my then—4-year-old asked as
I entered our living room.
“Sure, that would be nice,” I said.
“What kind of toppings do you
have?”
“Today we have blueberries, rasp-
berries and strawberries,” she noted
as she pointed to an imaginary menu
on the wall.
“I’ll have two pancakes with blue-
berries,” I said.
“We’re all out of blueberries,” she
announced.
“Okay, I’ll have raspberries,” I
said.
“The raspberries fell on the floor,”
she exclaimed, wrinkling her nose.
“They’re dirty. Really, really dirty!”

restaurant was inspected, anyway?” I
asked.
“You can have strawberries,” she
said, ignoring my question.
“They didn’t fall on the floor, did
they?” I asked.
She grinned and left the room to
get my food. I’d have to say those
were the best imaginary pancakes
and strawberries I ever had.
I was happy to hear that my young
daughter had not fallen prey to the
“five-second rule.” According to this
often-quoted rule, you have a few
seconds to pluck food from the floor
before it becomes contaminated.
Think again.
Several years ago, a high school
student from Chicago put the rule to
the test during an internship at an Illi-
nois university. She surveyed people
and learned that women were more
likely to eat food that fell on the floor.
She also learned that cookies and
candy were more likely to be re-
trieved than vegetables. Imagine that.
She sterilized ceramic tiles, inoc-
ulated the tiles with E. coli bacteria
and then dropped candy or cookies
on the tiles. The bad news for food
retrievers: Cookies and candy in-
stantly picked up bacteria.
In another test of the famous rule,
Clemson University researchers con-
sidered the bacteria—transferring

ST. JOHN SCHOOL DISTRICT #3
GENERAL
ELECTION
NOTICE
Notice is hereby given that on Tuesday the
8th of June, 2021, the Annual Election of the St.
John Public School District will be held at the
St. John Public School in the Media Center.
The purpose of the election is to elect two
members of the School Board both from the
Rural Population, for a term of three years. The
polls will be open at 11:00 AM and will close at
Also on the ballot shall be the question of

properties of several types of floor-
ing, including carpet, wood and tile.
The materials were inoculated with
salmonella and allowed to stand 24
hours to see if bacteria would sur-
vive. The carpet retained the most
bacteria, but all the materials retained
thousands of bacteria per square cen-
timeter of flooring material.
The researchers dropped bologna
and bread on the contaminated floor-
ing material. Within five seconds, the
food picked up thousands of bacteria.
Yes, the food that was on the floor
longer picked up more bacteria, but
don’t take that as evidence to retrieve
your cookies, sandwiches or other
foods. For some types of bacteria,
only a few cells can make you sick.
As we’ve learned from spinach
and lettuce foodbome illness out—
breaks, washing doesn’t always get
rid of pathogens (disease-causing or-
ganisms) on produce. The best ad-
vice: Don’t take chances. If you drop
food on the floor, toss it in the trash.
Cross-contamination is the trans-
fer of harmful bacteria from surfaces
to food or from one food to another.
Cross-contamination is one of the
leading causes of foodbome illness in
the US. Consider these tips from the
US. Department of Agriculture:
Use hot, soapy water and paper
towels or clean cloths to wipe up
