Don't eat the snow!

What is that all about? Every kid that plays outside eats snow. Now they are saying studies have found that snow is full of bacteria. As kids we played in the snow, made snowmen, had snowball fights and ate a lot of it. We learned a neat trick that when you made snowballs you could pour maple syrup on them and they were mighty tasty. No matter where you go you are in contact with bacteria. Even at the grocery stores they provide handi wipes to clean the handles of the carts, at the gym they have spray bottles of disinfectant to spray the machines and everyone washes their hands with soap. I don't think there is anything we can do about the snow. I say a little bacteria is good for you and the germs should be killed in the stomach with the amount of stomach acid you have. So let's eat snow!!!!Grandmother
