To potentially make DH very ill?

I realise there is a similar themed thread here, must be food hygiene day.

Anyway, I cooked a chicken on Thursday afternoon. Switched the oven off when it was ready and left it in there (one of those cook in the bag ALDI special bad boys).

We went away for the weekend and I totally forgot about it until now.

AIBU to test it on DH to see if it's edible? DH things it probably is, so is sort of consenting. He's also left his bastarding socks on the floor next to the laundry basket again, for me to collect and wash presumably. As such, I feel his life is expendable at the moment.

I don't think I did......... I was just thinking I couldn't sleep in that bed then tried to lighten it up a bit!

Sorry OP if I've come across as being a prick, it's what I would say to a friend tbh X

Doublemint · 02/08/2016 22:43

Sorry totally got the wrong thread there!

Absofrigginlootly · 02/08/2016 23:40

But what I'm finding the most interesting is the emerging possibility that OPs DH may be some kind of superhuman

Lucky is what OPs DH is. Lucky.

And stupid.

Let's not forget stupid.

I posted about this interesting topic, purely because I wanted to. I was BFing and had time to kill - oh now I see - and there was all these MNetters thinking you actually gave a toss!

Abso I think its a match made in heaven!

And a reckless parent, Absofrigginlootly. Endangering a baby's and a toddler's health to show the world what a stud he is, eating spoiled meat.

Don't forget the placing of it in the fridge, to ensure maximum potential for spreading its bacterial load. [sick]

*Envy

LuluJakey1 · 03/08/2016 00:21

OP your DH must have iron-guts!
Wellies and hosepipe on standown now I think . And you've had a lucky escape!

paxillin · 03/08/2016 00:25

Maybe he's fermenting. The big kaboom can come next week or even later. No doubt blamed on a rogue coffee or something.

LuluJakey1 · 03/08/2016 00:27

I don't know why people are being so nasty to the OP. Just don't read the thread if it upsets you. It was light-hearted from the start and you're going on like it might be the start of an epidemic across the country and as if somehow the OPs values are questionable. Just don't read it.

paxillin · 03/08/2016 00:34

Or maybe you could not read the answers you don't like. Same really.

LuluJakey1 · 03/08/2016 00:37

I could, but I have found the thread interesting. I just can't see any reason for anyone to be all pompous and judgemental.

paxillin · 03/08/2016 00:41

Everybody is judgemental, you judge the ones you deem not friendly enough, I judge the OP's dh for endangering his kids, others judge OP because she thought it a lark at first. Non- judgemental would be read the thread, think meh, close it, but then mn would be dead next week Grin.

Absofrigginlootly · 03/08/2016 00:52

I'm not being pompous but I am being judgmental.

I judge the OPs DH for being an irresponsible twat. I judge the OP for writing like it's all just a big laugh when the reality is potentially pretty serious.

Maybe my judgement is clouded by the fact that many moons ago I used to work as a nurse on an isolation unit for patients with infected diarrhoea (c.diff). Patients died. It was horrific. Having to nurse people in that condition and having to break the news to relatives was awful.

For someone to voluntarily give themselves (possibly serious) food poisoning and if so, run the very real risk of infecting his wife, small children, other patients (if he got admitted to hospital), the staff looking after him, their relatives at home if they take it home with them, visiting relatives etc etc and coating the NHS more money it can't afford..... Then yes I do judge.

torthecatlady · 03/08/2016 01:04

Am I the only person wondering how the OP forgot about a chicken in the oven? Blush
It must have smelt lovely cooking and weren't you hungry?! Grin

Poptart27 · 03/08/2016 01:19

You guys do know this whole thread is a made up "bored while breastfeeding" story, right?

SuckingEggs · 03/08/2016 09:23

I bloody hope so. Idiot central, otherwise.

TheEternalForever · 03/08/2016 14:01

It's anecdotes like this one that make me glad I'm a vegetarian Grin

paxillin · 03/08/2016 14:17

As long as you don't share an office with a plonker like this, TheEternalForever, then you could still catch it. 60 % of men don't wash their hands after the loo. Chances are someone eating a four day old biohazard won't be too particular about hygiene.

TheEternalForever · 03/08/2016 14:52

paxillin ahhh well in that case I shall stock up on hand sanitiser and regard every offered biscuit or hand placed on my desk with extreme suspicion Smile

paxillin · 03/08/2016 15:31

The office phone, boak!

CreepyPasta · 04/08/2016 12:39

Update please OP? Is DH still alive??

IveAlreadyPaid · 04/08/2016 18:10

Finally caught up with this. Phew 😌 His hope dh is still ok?

IveAlreadyPaid · 04/08/2016 18:11

I hope not his hope. But probably that too
