So you've got some of your wife's friends around for dinner and decide to lay on some nice crudités and houmous or some other such dip. Nice. Very nice. Until the minging looking one with the remnants of flu dips, bites, and dips again, thus depositing massive germs into the dipping pot. Then, the one with the cold sore on his/her bottom lip, does exactly the same. Dip, bite of celery, dip again, there you go everyone, have some of my herpes.

Never, ever, ever, double dip, it is disgusting.

Brighton to win Friday.

I would have gone out. If they are her friends coming round then she can look after them and make conversation

I would help set the stuff up/buy it etc. but have no intention of staying and eating humous with double dippers

I feel your pain. Double dipping is a big no no. At a small gathering I am completely upfront and just tell people that obviously no double dipping, pretending to make a joke but being deadly serious. If it is a larger event, like making food and dips for a buffet, I actually make a cardboard sign and put it next to the dips saying no double dipping. Best to be upfront. I think it's lack of self awareness that makes people think its OK for others to eat your spit.

Don't come round my house and dip your jammy knife in my butter or you're for it. Don't even THINK about double dipping your knife into my marmite either.

While out having Sunday pub roast with Mrs V and her family her brother spooned some Apple Sauce from the jar provided on to his dinner and then licked the spoon clean before putting it back in the jar :sick:..... luckily I was on Roast Lamb.

A couple of things to note.

If you're worried about Herpes, don't hang around with people with Herpes.

Also, maybe educate them? Or, alternatively, tell them to dip, bite, turn around the celery so the bit they've not gobbed all over is going in the dip, and then dip again.

Saying that, double dipping is awful.

On a side note... are we actually discussing double dipping or is this a euphemism for something more sinister?

Had friends round the other day, with a dip on the table, and caught my daughter going for her second dunk with a piece of carrot. I stopped her and explained why she couldn't do it, and my friend was surprised as she thought it was fine to double dip. No, no it's not fine. We don't want your germs. Well actually I wouldn't mind hers, but that's besides the point.

Just like those of you that stick your dirty thumb over the top of a bottle of sparkling wine, or stick your finger in the food your cooking to taste it. As Alex Sibley would say, it's disgusting!

Provide paper plates so that guests can spoon the dips onto their own plates. They can then double dip as much as they want.

So what's your view on toast crumbs liberally spread all over your Lurpak ?
