Given isolation from germy people, I figure the dog is helping to provide a robust immune system.

wipe the pacifier on my sleeve

That sounds like a much better solution.

I let my son eat his boogers (rather, I don’t shame him for it). His body gets an immune boost and he enjoys a little salty snack. Win win.

My thoughts exactly!

Now imagine if you let a dog lick them first

For my niece and nephew, I would just take the pacifier to the kitchen or bathroom, rinse it under some water and take it back. Worked fine most of the time.

Sure, when you are at home or near a kitchen or bathroom or some other source of clean water. Being out in the wild (away from any of those conveniences) you improvise.

Sometimes the sleeve simply doesn’t get everything off.

I was like really? People really believed that things that fell on the floor and were picked up within 5 seconds couldn’t have been contaminated by whatever was on that floor/ground?

No, people didn’t really “believe” it. It was just an excuse so that we didn’t have to clean something or throw it out.

It’s mainly that we know a lot of the stuff we eat/put in our mouths isn’t exactly clean, and it’s ok.

I don’t see the glass as half full. Nor half empty.

I see it as a glass that is twice as big as it needs to be.

[NormalDan]

Well now that just sounds risky, having a glass with no room to spare

We called them nooks
I recall both daughters wanting “Two nooks! TWO NOOKS!”

[1695814]

Yes.

[R_Daneel_Olivaw]

I don’t know about that, but Nuka-Cola was HUGE back in the day.
