Do you pick up food if you drop it

Do I clean up after myself like a human adult? Yes.

One time out in the field, I think we were at Graf. As usual, it was really muddy. I was laying out my MRE on the front slope of the tank. This particular one had the chocolate bar in it, a prized find to be sure. After I’d eaten my entree, probably something like Chicken a la King if I had to guess, I went to enjoy my chocolate bar. But when I opened it up, I dropped the bar right into a mud puddle that was about ankle deep. The water had the color of coffee with a lot of cream. I didn’t even hesitate. I felt around the puddle, found the bar, shook it off a bit and enjoyed every last bite.

(Funny how the mind works, I could not tell you what I had for lunch this day last week. But I remember eating that damned chocolate bar almost 35 years ago.)

I’ll clean up a mess I made in any space. I’m not eating anything off the floor except from my house.

tell us more about how you still live with your parents...

Yep. And any other trash I drop I clean up.

Of course. I’m not trashy. I clean up after myself.

Indoors, yes. Always

Outdoors, situational.

If it’s easy to get to, sure. If I drop something at a restaurant and getting it would require getting down on the floor, then no.

yeah, pretty simple. they have to clean the floors at restaurants anyway so i'm not going under the table.

I would’ve picked up the fries and put them in the trash. I was in the bath/locker room in my gym, water bottle hit the floor and it went straight in the trash. Anything hits a public bathroom floor and it’s obsolete.
