Double Dippers Get 10,000 More Germs!

If your mom told you not to double dip, it turns out she knew what she was talking about. The fact is, you might want to think twice before you're tempted to reload that chip. Researchers have discovered that when someone double dips three to six times it can transfer up to 10,000 bacteria to the bowl. Salsa was one of the worst culprits picking up more bacteria than thicker dips because of it's runny consistency, but its acidity makes the bacteria count decline faster.
