AIBU to think it's wrong to suck the squirty cream!

Just that really

Person making dinner added some cream into the sauce. We only have squirty in a can cream so used that

But then he sucked the top of it to remove that last bit you always get and then put the lid back on!

We've had a row, he thinks it's normal and that's what everyone does.

I've said it's horrible and germs will grow.

AIBU

I think he's been sucking my nozzle every time tbh and I'm a bit angry but may be over reacting

It's like double dipping isn't it? YOU JUST DON'T DO THAT!

I do it. But I also rinse it under the hot tap after. If you don't then the cream trapped in the nozzle goes mouldy. Besides, my DH and I have swapped bodily fluids before so the idea of it doesn't bother me!

EverythingsDozy · 07/05/2014 20:03

I don't suck the nozzle but I am guilty of squirting the cream into my mouth! Blush
And I'm one who won't even lick a spoon and put it back in to taste. I use the stirring spoon to put some sauce on a teaspoon!

AnnoyingOrange · 07/05/2014 20:03

It's unhygienic. I always run the nozzle under the tap to clean it before putting the lid back on

PrudenceH · 07/05/2014 20:10

If he'd run it under that tap that would be ok, but no just lid back on

He's gone home in a huff. I said it was no different to me going to his and sucking his grapes or taking a nipple out his cheese and putting them back in the fridge expecting someone else to eat them without a Envy - sick face

He thinks both of those are not on, but the cream thing is different.

It's not!

I love doing that! :)

I too partake in licking the squirty cream nozzle. I offer you no excuses. It's half mine, and we've shared more than just a little spit.

PrincessBabyCat · 07/05/2014 20:12

sucking his grapes

UHm.. do you put them back in the fridge after you suck on them? Confused

MyrtleDove · 07/05/2014 20:12

I do it but only if it's only me using it.

PrudenceH · 07/05/2014 20:13

No of course I don't PrincessBabyCat I'm saying it's as bad as if I did that.

Which I would not do

If it was for others outside DP, DC and myself I wouldn't lick it, I'd run it under a tap.

Anyway the best way to eat it is to tilt your head back and squirt it into your open mouth. Anchor make a CHOCOLATE squirty cream now. Lush.

PrudenceH · 07/05/2014 20:14

or I might just out of spite now.

Best sentence fragment I have read today - you win!

MrsTerryPratchett · 07/05/2014 20:15

Life is too short. Squirt the cram in your mouth, follow it with a squirt of chocolate sauce and dance like no one is watching.

MrsTerryPratchett · 07/05/2014 20:15

Dammit, cream.

UncleT · 07/05/2014 20:16

Taking a nipple out of his cheese??? What on earth has been going on over there? Grin

PrincessBabyCat · 07/05/2014 20:18

I misread that, I thought you he said it wasn't as bad as what you were doing to his food. :)

If it's your house though, and he's not living there, it does seem to be over stepping a bit.

IkeaFurnitureAssemblyChampions · 07/05/2014 20:18

I do it but I then wash it under the tap.

I would certainly not do it if anyone else was around, let alone not washing it afterwards.

Darmok · 07/05/2014 20:19

NO nipples in the cheese! How many times do I have to tell you?

IkeaFurnitureAssemblyChampions · 07/05/2014 20:20

Also I would never suck anyone else's nozzle, that's just not on (let alone nipples in their cheese, WTF?)

LRDtheFeministDragon · 07/05/2014 20:21

I'm more bothered you're using squirty cream in food, but there we go.

RiverTam · 07/05/2014 20:23

I always double-dip. Make of that what you will.

PrudenceH · 07/05/2014 20:26

nibble the cheese, sorry, you know like a mouse

You don't need to suck somebody else's nozzle, but I'd suck my own nozzle if I had the chance.

Very unhygienic.

Marylou62 · 07/05/2014 20:38

When my DCs were younger they all lined up for a squirt of cream...but no lips to touch the plastic!!! They loved it!! Gave me terrible wind so I walked around with my mouth open till all the gas gone! Lovely silly memories....

deakymom · 07/05/2014 21:28

i used to buy squirty chocolate cream for the walk home for me and my daughter when we did the shopping people said i should get a taxi but then i would of not had the memories of he bouncing around from all the sugar yelling squirt me mommy squirt meeeee!!

why was it not washed? its rude not to wash if your lips touch x

ClashCityRocker · 07/05/2014 21:32

I'm a secret squirter. I like to squirt the mr whippy shape into my mouth and see how much I can fit in.

Wouldn't suck the nozzle though. That's just a step too far.
