If it were something that could be saved, then I'd certainly do that.
It depends on other stuff

Re: The 2 second thort ;
Sorry Art, because we have always had dogs, who mooch around the kitchen whenever there is food being cooked, if I ever accidently drop any on the floor, it is destined for the bin before the little beggars get hold of it. (previously two hoover labradors before these two).It's not that I don't mop my kitchen floor and it always looks clean, it's just the thought of what is on the bottom of my boy's paws that they may have picked up from the garden.
I'm the fussiest woman in the world when it comes to food hygiene and I just couldn't do it. (Not that I blame anyone else who does!) it's just a "me" thing.

It only takes two seconds to loose control of your car! That is an important thought.

Re: The 2 second thort ;
Apologies if I have told this before, but it's one of my favorites:It was Thanksgiving and away from home while our husbands finished Navy flight school, we decided to save expenses and have a big potluck dinner. My friend Audrey wanted to bake the turkey.
Thanksgiving morning, she called crying hysterically
,saying that she must have purchased Tom turkey and the wasn't going to be enough meat to feed everyone. "How do you know it's a Tom?" I asked. 
She sobbed, "because it's so skinny and bony!" Confused and suppressing laughter, I told her that I would be right over...
At her home, I was led down the long hall that led straight to the kitchen. Opening the oven, she burst into tears again at the sight of the bird. Squinting through the heat, I could see, sure enough, that bones projected forward where tender breast meat should have been . Pulling out the rack, I realized immediately what the problem was and exclaimed that the turkey was in the pan upside-down.
Relieved, we knew that all we had to do was turn it over, but when we did so, it slipped, taking magnificent bump on the oven door, before it hit the tile floor, slid all the way across the kitchen and another good fifteen feet down the hall where it finally came to rest against the front door - but not before taking one last triumphant ricochet.
Shocked, we stood there in frozen silence for a few seconds before I burst out laughing and Audrey burst into tears again.
Immediately, I concocted a plan
and swore her to secrecy. We hoisted the turkey (not easy, mind you, the think was as slippery as a basket of eeels) back in the pan...took it into the bathroom...and then proceed to give the thing a good a good, hot bath.After a few minutes of scrubbing, we returned the bird, breast-side up to the oven, none the worse for wear.
Three house later, as twenty of us gathered around our the table, dining on the perfectly roasted bird, imagine the look I gave Audrey
when one of the pilots, with several heads nodding in agreement announced, "This is the moistest, most tender turkey I have ever eaten!"
