Yummy

Today, I reached into my fridge to grab a strawberry soda. I noticed the can had started to leak from the top so I slurped up the spilt red liquid on the top of the can. I realized it wasn't soda, but blood from a defrosting steak on the shelf above it. FML

Oh man, nasty! That's why meat goes on the bottom. Hope you don't get sick.

Are you vegetarian? That'd be even worse.

#1 If you didn't know, most fridges have different temperature "zones" or whatever you want to call them. Meat goes on the top shelf, because its the coldest part of the fridge. Vegetables and fruits go to the bottom, because it's the warmest part of the fridge.

Just to make #19 happy, YDI for having meat in the fridge. Now we know. You secretly yearn to be a vampire. FYL.

YDI. If a can is leaking, you shouldn't drink from it anyway.

um, that's what you get for eating meat. durr.

Why the hell's that gross? I eat my meat red, it has blood in it when I eat it as well.

thank you, was waiting for someone to say that

Actually, that red stuff dripping from the steak is myoglobin, a water soluble protein. So maybe you won't feel as sick now.

... And thats why you always put the frozen/defrosting meat on the bottom shelf. So that if anything spills it doesn't go into anything that you want to eat.
