Do you let your lips touch the fork/spoon when you eat?

i don't...kinda germophobic I guess. I don't use my teeth I just kinda put the fork in my mouth and let the food fall in. I see most people wrap their lips around the utensil

Oh GREAT! Now I'm not going to be able to eat normally because I'll be thinking about what is touching what:) Honestly, germs are for the most part, not a problem. You need to be exposed to germs all the time to build-up immunity. If you don't, you end up one of these bubble-boy freaks who breaks out at the drop of a hat. My girlfriend's kid dates this clean freak guy, and he is always getting sick. It's the opposite of what you think. germs keep you healthy.

Yes, I do. Most food that I eat does easily slip off the spoon/form, and go into my mouth. I have to use my teeth, or lips to get it off the spoon/fork. If you are afraid of germs or whatever being on the fork, just rinse it in some clean water. That's what I do (to get rid of possible dust that could have stuck onto the utensil while it was in the drawer).

Yes I let my lips touch the fork/spoon. Germs don't really bother me. I hate it when people use their teeth though. That has to be one of the most annoying sounds ever!

The utensil is not the area of likely contamination in the exercise.

the thought of putting my lips on a spoon or fork grosses me out... i don’t scrape the metal with my teeth, i scrape the food off with my teeth... people literally suck them clean and i gag.
