Bottle of squirty cream put back in the fridge, open fridge door squirty cream is laying in or on top of a small dish of pomegranate so has pomegranete juice on and bottle is in the dish. Is this an issue? Would you be cross irritated angry or is it a non issue? You didn't put it there wwyd? Genuine question

Zanatdy · 16/11/2022 18:11

Wouldn’t bother me, I’d wash the bottle

BigSidLittleSid · 16/11/2022 18:12

Non issue, surely?!

medicatedgift · 16/11/2022 18:12

I'd just rinse it off.

CaroleFuckingBaskin · 16/11/2022 18:12

Non issue

Watto1 · 16/11/2022 18:13

Non-issue. These things happen! Neither the pomegranate nor the squirty cream will have come to any harm .

maddy68 · 16/11/2022 18:13

I'd be mildly irritated but wioe off the can and not give it another thought

TortugaRumCakeQueen · 16/11/2022 18:19

Sounds like you're living with a lazy person, who is sloppy with things and you're expected to keep cleaning up after them? It would annoy me too. Why not put things back properly?

MyPurpleHeart · 16/11/2022 18:20

Please tell me you're not serious

AnApparitionQuipped · 16/11/2022 18:21

I wouldn't think anything of it. I might mention to the person who last used it that it needed a wipe the next time they got it out.

LIZS · 16/11/2022 18:21

Non issue wipe and replace bottle

LynetteScavo · 16/11/2022 18:21

I wouldn't want anything in my pomegranate, I so would have put it in something with a lid. If something did get on the can of cream I'd rinse and dry it.

Iwritethissittinginthekitchensink · 16/11/2022 18:21

Has someone moaned about you doing this?

agree it’s a non issue. Wipe it up.

picklemewalnuts · 16/11/2022 18:22

I'd be irritated that the pomegranate was effectively contaminated by the dirty outside of the cream tin.

I'd be irritated with myself for failing to cover the pomegranate properly, and someone else for being clumsy with the cream!

I'd say nothing at all, because it's a minor problem.

sammylady37 · 16/11/2022 18:26

I would take the bottle out of the dish, clean it if necessary and then get on with my life

Januarytoes · 16/11/2022 18:26

There are strict rules about squirty cream in our house. Nozzle must be throughly rinsed under warm tap by the consumer or it goes mouldy. And clear cap is not put back on, it's only needed while on display in the shop to show the nozzle is clean for the first use.

We never have pomegranate in our fridge though so I cant advise about that, unless maybe rinse the whole squirty thing when the nozzle is rinsed?

Redcisco · 16/11/2022 18:28

I would think just be grateful you can fill your fridge with little extras like pomegranate and squirty cream and enjoy the rest of your evening

girlmom21 · 16/11/2022 18:30

Depends if your husband kicks off when you use scissors instead of a pizza cutter

Bemyclementine · 16/11/2022 18:32

Non issue but my ExH would have made one out I'd it.

Hankunamatata · 16/11/2022 18:32

It would irritate me that it was put in a dish of fruit and then I'd have to take it out and wipe it.

AliTheMinx · 16/11/2022 18:33

Total non-issue! Is this serious?!

Itwasntevenblackpudding · 16/11/2022 18:35

Have you missed something out? Can't believe this is a serious question.

You must throw away everything in your fridge and then burn the fridge.

Log it with the police and get yourself checked over in A and E.

Cancel all holidays for the foreseeable future.

MistressoftheDarkSide · 16/11/2022 18:39

I would assume it had fallen over and wipe it down.

FarmGirl78 · 16/11/2022 18:59

Flippin eck if this an issue for you you'd be having palpitations if you opened my fridge.

Slanty · 16/11/2022 19:03

I’m guessing the OP has had to listen to someone rant about this happening and it’s one in a string of incidents making her question her relationship.

OP, this wouldn’t be an issue in my house, and the person who found it would just rinse the can and place it somewhere more secure.

Nasty squirt cream would not be allowed inside the front door though.

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 16/11/2022 19:06

It'd be the least of my worries woes whys and what fors.
