The Great Allergy Cross Contamination Experiment - Part 2!

Hi again, today I'm  doing part 2 of my experiments to show how easy it is to get tiny bits of food contamination! This could make someone, with an allergy, very poorly. Or they might end up in hospital. It can be very serious, and not everyone knows this.

First I put some  glitter in a bowl and got my hands covered in glitter ready for the experiment. 




Then I touched a cracker...



an apple...




a plate...




and a cup...



and it left them covered in glitter!

I also held Mummy's hand and it made her get glittery too!




Then Mummy wiped the table, with a baby wipe, to get rid of the glitter. It didn't all go after a few wipes. This means you have to be very careful when cleaning up after yourself too, as there might be enough contamination left to make you unwell.






So, if someone ate something like cheese then touched a cup, and then I touched it I would get itchy. If I ate a tiny bit of it, I might even end up in an ambulance again and having my epipens. So remember to wash your hands! And it gets rid of germs too! 

Hope you enjoyed my allergy cross contamination experiments. I have one more still to try and do soon.
