Did I Get It? What About Now?

Anonymous has left a new comment on your post:

"Ok, this has nothing to do with carnivorous plants but a "jelly bean" of mine is when the popcorn kernels get stuck between your teeth and you spend like an hour or two trying to get them out. Thanks, I feel better now."

Crash & Burn:
Ah, yes. Those wonderful memories. Who among us has not had this incredibly annoying experience, second only to canceling a subscription of any kind? What compounds the dilemma is when you are on a date and have just finished your bag of "Popcorn Indiana" (Fantasticle!) and you know there is something lodged between your teeth but it won't budge.

Would you tell the other person if they had something stuck? Would you chance embarrassing them for even the briefest of moments so that you don't shudder every time you gaze at that giant black spot on their teeth?

Advice: You would be amazed at the accuracy of a Metro card in place of floss. Just don't use the one laying on the floor...unless you want to test your doctor's full medical abilities.

(just bc something has a rabbis signature on it doesnt mean its kosher...)

Do other people know about this??
Can we know the source- under the circumstances I would say it is important...
I hope no one else makes this mistake! oops!

i spoke to a very reliable rabbi in a very reliable kashrus organization.. if anyone is interested in finding out the situation, i would suggest calling either the OU or the KOF-K.

you know it sounds so sketchy..."very reliable rabbi"...any rabbi would endorce giving his name if he really felt there was a problem. Even more so, he has a responsability to give his name if there is a problem...

it is not so simple- sometimes even if people are told something, they do not listen to it- and that makes it worse. bc if they dont know, its bshogeg. if they do know and they do it anyway, its bmezid. thats why unless you know that someone will listen to you, you arent supposed to give tochacha. in this case, if somoene is truly interested and wants to know, they can call up a rabbi in kashrus who knows what he is talking about and find out the answer for themselves. however, i think that the hamon am is not really going to be so easygoing on a fact like this..

wow and the popcorn wasnt even from Popcon Indiana. btw, this maybe for your other blog abt great places to go on dates but...we went to popcorn indiana, got popcorn, went to a hotel and watched other peoples dates like it was a movie or a spectator sport. not the nicest thing to do but funny.
o yea you should only do this after like atleast the 15th date, if you date that far

p.s. nasty metrocard move
