My glass of wine

29 replies

I was enjoying a nice glass of wine. Some mosquito spray has been sprayed and I can taste it in my wine.

Who's right or wrong? I think I shouldn't drink it DP thinks it's ok.

Oh yuck
I doubt it’ll kill you. I’ve ingested plenty of that crap. But isn’t it minging?

It's got a kind of perfumy taste to it if I'm honest

If it doesn’t taste nice pour it away and get a fresh one Confused

Drink it and when the mozzies bite you, watch them die from a hangover.

😂 there's a point! I really don't want to waste a whole glass of wine. That's the only reason I've not binned it

Depends on the spray - some natural repellent type thing I'd probably drink it, DEET not so much.

Ok it's a DEET one. Maximum strength I'm binning it.

Let’s hope the alcohol acts as an antidote?

onetwothreeadventure · 25/06/2020 20:59

No way would I drink it if it's the strong stuff. And I feel strongly about not wasting wine!

There is a simple solution to this problem- send hubby to shop for more wine. Simples

GreyGardens88 · 25/06/2020 21:05

It just says not to spray near food etc and not to inhale. Swear I can still taste it!

What’s the point of drinking 🍷 wine if it tastes of insecticide? Get yourself a clean glass and start again! 🍷

That's exactly what I have done. After a few sips I couldn't hack the taste of it.

This, to me, is the taste of camping!

Wheresthebeach · 25/06/2020 21:44

Which is why I hate camping😂
