Kendra "Gloom is My Beat" Pierre-Louis: It's even more extreme for kids. The first time I had the flu I was so weak I had to crawl to the bathroom. So yeah you want emergency backup.

Oh my god’ it was HUGE! And its a lasting meme. White people have barf bowls we also use for large salads and halloween candy and popcorn. Washed in between but white people washing so…

THE HALLOWEEN CANDY BOWLS WERE BARF BOWLS??

This is the issue Brooke. It's not having a barf bowl it's having a multi purpose barf bowl

I feel like such a babe in the woods right now. Do you mean, I would eat at other peoples houses, and there was a nonzero chance someone puked in something I was eating out of...? This whole time??

Apparently! Not my house though! Food stuff doesn't mix with non food uses. I have measuring spoons just for cleaning supplies!

Same!! I don't think this is unreasonable!

In my house the barf bowl is the toilet bowl. What the fuck.

Sometimes when you're really sick you can't make it. I'm college I puked in our sink because I couldn't make it to the toilet (sink was in my room, toilet was not). It was some stomach bug and it was bad enough I was puking bile

But that’s what BUCKETS are for, not bowls!

I've already said I use a trash can. I'm not defending barf bowls, just the use of a barf receptacle

Buckets are the way. I just used a 2L yogurt container (it will just get recycled after, not ever reused for food storage) for my sick toddler, but he’s got a tiny stomach to empty. We’ll move him up to a bucket soon.
