Same. It would be a hard pass. Tell the child how yummy it looks but then make ice cream sundaes or something that is better anyway.

Pretty sure OP's daughter is one of the students, not the teacher.

Sure if it tastes good. Why not?

I would never eat anything made by kids at an elementary school. No way.

Of course. Lighten up.

Obviously an attempt by the school to poison parents.

You don't work in a school setting, do you? Those sweet little hands have been just about everywhere...

Really couldn’t care less. It’s a dirty grimy world out there. I don’t have anxiety so I don’t worry about the invisible harmless things on kids’ hands much less the minuscule amount that would end up in the food they make.

Same. I've worked in preschool and elementary schools. I make the kids wash their hands before doing any cooking project and if I spy anyone accidentally swiping their nose or licking their finger I cheerfully make them wash up again. But what exactly do you think you'll get from a little kid snot from a baked pie versus sitting next to a coughing kid or going to work with 60 year old Selma who comes to work sick because that's her MO, she thinks sick days are for the week.

Germs are everywhere.

I am immunocompromised. I do a lot of things that casual observer may think is irrational fear, but my oncologist specifically told me to do. Food safety is more important than any people think.

This extends to middle school as well. Hands are inside underwear during class and I’m supposed to pretend I don’t notice.
