Yes, same bowl. But I put a plastic divider in the bottom to keep the puke and popcorn separated.

we use any old tupperware when our kids are nauseous. just throw it in the dishwasher afterwards...

Mostly try to make it to the toilet but my babies couldn't always so lined bin from the bathroom.

It’s disgusting to use a bowl for bodily fluid to also serve food out of. Please stop doing that.

This, or a waste paper basket (not actually a basket but small trashcan) who grows up in a bowl? Any kind of serveware? GROSS 🤮

Are you from Boston/New England? Waste paper basket is such a funny little phrase to me that I’ve only heard from my Bostonian father.


To the OP: Yes throw up bowl/popcorn bowl/trick or treat candy bowl. This is Caucasian American culture

I got a lot of flowers from Trader Joe’s a couple of weeks ago and they were so kind they gave me a bucket with some water to carry all the flowers back home.

I made a joke that the bucket looked to the perfect throw-up bucket.

Well jokes on me because two weeks later my daughter brought a stomach bug home from school and it hit hard and that bucket came in handy!

And yes the goal is the toilet, but young kids can’t always make it.

Anonymous wrote:For trash can people- the can being in the bathroom gets gross just from proximity to the toilet- do you clean it every time you clean the bathroom? Even with a plastic liner, it’s still gross. I would rather a pasta pot that can be sanitized than the gross plastic bin from the bathroom.

It’s not like it’s being vomited into daily - it’s a rare occasion and mostly just sits next to the bed if a kid is sick and truly can’t get to the bathroom in time. It gets dumped into the toilet and then washed and bleached.

Childhood was a variety. Trash can, popcorn bowl, toilet.
I hate throwing up in the toilet. I won't. I will throw up in the tub if I don't have a barf bag. The smell of the toilet - even when clean - makes me more ill.
As a parent I now have those blue bags eerywhere but if someone is under age 8 I will use a lined nellis detergent bucket that I use for cleaning. But mostly the blue bags.

I have more issues with ibs diarreah than puking. Sorry, tmi. I mostly make it to the toilet..

gross no

I’ve got a puker and the correct answer is: toilet, McDonald’s Boo Bucket, trash can, emesis bag in that order. But never, ever, EVER under any circumstances food bowls. You keep your norovirus popcorn away from me.

We use the plastic shoeboxes.

We also don't have a popcorn bowl. We serve popcorn directly into small bowls split evenly among all who want some.

As everyone eyes the large salad bowls at every family gathering going forward.
