I've been doing some philosophizing, and I don't think double dipping is actually gross. All of the dip that comes into contact with saliva is taken away and eaten
>>21834611Your experimental methods?
>>21834617experimental? this is philosophy. please make sure to read the post front to back to gain an understanding of the approach before engaging with the dialectic
>>21834619Yeah I just looked at the image, I didn't read your post
>>21834611double dipping is not a concept in my countryi think your theory might be right, but i guess it depends on what your dip is - olive oil might not work like that
>>21834627Olive oil might work quite well, actually, since it's nonpolar and won't mix much with the water/spit.Unless the icky parts of spit are preferentially attracted to the olive oil, in which case you might get a little mass transfer.
>>21834611What >>21834627 said, depends on the dip and the item being dipped. Carrots and hummus might've been the worst example you could've picked. With chips something sticky like queso this might be true though
Spit is going to be circumferential on the carrot, but fresh dip will only be deposited on the leading "face" as it's dragged out.So the barrier layer you're proposing won't cover all the spit, maybe just half of it at best, leaving the other half in contact with dip that remains in the bowl.
Nice theory. Now you should prove it by going down to the local park and double dipping with a homeless person.
>>21834635Oil floats on water, so it might actually push the spit down
>>21834611>All of the dip that comes into contact with saliva is taken away and eatenIncorrect. Dip falls off things back into the rest of the dip all the time. Especially nachos.
>>21834611this hypothesis is easily testabledip something into dyed water, like green food coloring, so that there is some small droplets of telltale liquidthen dip into something uniform like sour cream and look for residuemy bet would be there is some small amount of carry over
>>21834611It seems to be based on viscosity and the pH of the dip.https://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=related:xUSve34zMpEJ:scholar.google.com/&hl=en&as_sdt=0,5#d=gs_qabs&t=1768505007813&u=%23p%3DxUSve34zMpEJ
>>21834611professional double dipper here.you need to swish it around for maximum spreadage.
Fixed
>>21834701Interestingly, the authors note that the reason the viscosity matters isn't actually due to any physical dynamics as >>21834822 would imply, but rather posited that it leads to the liquidy dip sloughing off and falling into the container. Obviously direct contact still contributes, this study needs to be re-done with this in mind with controls for differing pH but similar viscosity. I love and hate how we're 200 years into germ theory but people are so cucked into studying computer science and shit we still don't definitively understand one of the most fundamentally important biological system (processing & consuming food) in our livesowell keeps me employed
>>21834611double dip after somebody with lip herpe double dips. gotta be the same container you both dip from
you also have saliva on your lips/teeth, are you trying to do the peggy hill bite where she doesn't smear her lipstick?
>>21834611>>21834822Why would there be spit on the sides? People don't wrap their lips around chips or carrots when they take a bite, they just use their teeth
How does this work in the cultures with communal hand eating from giant dishes? They lick the food from their fingers and then reach back in the communal dish with saliva covered fingers. Do people ever get sick from that or does no one notice?
>>21834929I do this when I double dip for maximum spit dispersal
>>21834822I’m okay with this if it is a hot goth girl. Preferably she’d just spit into the dip or my mouth.
>>21834939I think they usually use one hand for the communal bowl, put it on a plate or naan or whatever, and then eat it with the other hand
>>21834611there's research papers on this.you're wrong.
>>21835258No they don't. They use exclusively use the right hand for eating. The left hand is considered unclean for eating.
>>21834611everyone within proximity of the bowl is going to be exposed to air-borne spittle and breath germs anyway (assuming party scenario) , so who gives a shit.
>>21835341don't eat birthday cake that has candles that get blown out
>>21834611By that logic, it should be fine to stick my dick in the mashed potatoes and it'd still be fine to eat. Make it that kind of party.
we can prove or disprove this easily.>i take a q tip with ricin on it>i dip it into a ranch dressing bowl>OP has to eat out of that bowl 10 times, only 10>if OP is still alive in 1 week then he is right.. >if not, well, the gene pool is a tad cleaner
>>21834700IIRC milk will glow under a UV light, I could test this properly if I buy some hummus.Currently only have salsa to dip into.
>>21834611Miasma-theory tier. Please consult a modern microbiology textbook, anon.
>>21835516Tonic water fluoresces also.
>>21834611There is a part of the carrot that meets your lips as you bite down on it, as your teeth are what severs the carrotThat part will the go back into the hummus. You are wrong. You will be destroyed.
>>21834611>>21834822I bet this is what Orange Fool liked to do to the punch at his children’s birthday parties>except it isn’t carrot
>>21834611>sucking creamy dip off a baby carrot in front of peoplebit gay mate
>>21834913What if I want to kiss someone with lip herpes AFTER they've double dipped?
Your independent experiment is made up and looks like fantasy medieval fairy tale to me.Also it doesn't address the problem of liquid-y dips which is even worse because liquids are constantly moving around at a molecular level.Lol.
Easy to see that it does not work this way.Just take a stick or carrot and put on some ink or chocolate sirup or whatever colorful liquid and dip it.If your theory is correct there should be no traces of the liquid in the dip. But as anybody can attest if you have something still on there you always find a bit of it in the dip afterwards.Take a mozzarella stick, add ketchup, dip in mayo, you will always have some ketchup in your mayo afterwards
i think a lot of the disagreement here comes down to what is being dippedone can snap a carrot apart with a tooth or two, but a chicken wing is a very different thing
If you think about it, only the water that comes into contact with his tongue is soiled
Who gives a fuck? It's just saliva
>>21834611Mythbusters already proved people who scuz out over double dipping are tards.
>>21834822>I'll just draw a bunch of arrows, that'll show em!The absolute state of doubledipphobics.
>>21834611Why would you even care about some microscopic amount of saliva from someone you're sharing food with? If they don't have some kind of contagious disease you're worried about, what's the problem?
