Can I really?

[ExitPursuedByALamb]

Just made tuna pasta bake and divided into 5 dishes. DD will have one for tea and I will freeze the rest. Came upstairs to MN check emails, heard a noise downstairs, went down, dog slinking away licking his lips.

He has eaten a bit from one of the dishes which was near the edge of the work counter.

I have scraped a couple of spoonfuls off the top.

AIBU to feed it to DD for tea? (She does let the dog lick her face)

Why not shoot the dog and retrieve the pasta?

YABU, there are others, the dog may have drooled all over the dish.

YABU dog licking her face (why do you let it do this? ) and intentionally feeding her dog slobber are two different things

I would. Little bit of dog dribble, yum yum.

I think most wouldn't, though

Ewwww - wouldn't let the dog lick her face, and I definitely wouldn't let her eat anything the dog might have eaten from.

Why didn't you cover the dishes since you have a dog on the premises?

Urgh. I couldn't

Is it still going to be baked until it's bubbling hot? In that case I wouldn't be too worried. Would probably generously scrape bits off the top though.

Should I have name-changed before I said this?

no, me either

would YOU eat it OP?

if so, that's your portion sorted [barf]

Why don't you put the licked bowl in the freezer and give DD the untouched one? I may have missed something...

That's a resounding no then.

I didn't cover them because he is meant to bloody well behave himself.

Bastard dog. An afternoon's cooking gone to waste when I could have been sat in the sun.

dogs spend most of the day rimming themselves

Put the doggy-tested on in the freezer batch. It will kill off anything that's in there. That said, dog saliva is cleaner than an awful lot of other things that find their way into DCs mouths...

If it's going to be heated when defrosted, there won't be anything wrong with it.

Yes, no problem at all with that.

Kids need germs. Dogs are gross, kids are gross. Everyone will be fine

Just zap it in a really hot oven and it will be fine. What the eye doesn't see...

But prepared to admit I'm probably going to be in minority. :)

it took you a whole afternoon to do tuna pasta? blimey

Well my first thought on reading this was, not sure if I would feed to dd. I might, but I would definately feed to dh without a second thought. That's so bad I do love my husband.

I'm pretty sure that freezing things doesn't kill germs.

Oh, now some of you are saying it is OK....

No it didn't take me all afternoon, that was just poetic licence.

Mmm, maybe freeze it and then I will forget which one it was as I never label anything.

DD is 11. She is pretty resilient.

I thought you meant 'put it in the freezer for playdates' [runs]

LyingWitch, freezing things definitely doesn't kill germs - just stops them dividing into more germs.

I'd say it depends how recently the dog was licking his arse .

Wouldn't do it myself, and I'm not fussy about most things.

Laquitar - when can your children come to play?

No thanks

You've got 4 other dishes of it, so why feed DD the one the dog has slobbered in? I'd just bin it. Really quite unkind to give that one to your DD. But then I feel sick when I see dogs licking peoples faces so...
