one time when i was younger I'd have my weekly cooking class with my grandma, one of the ingredients that week was ginger. i wasn't strong enough to press it so i cut it instead. it didn't smell particularly spicy, and i was a kid with many allergies and it was the middle of summer. right as i scrubbed my eyeballs my grandma told me to be careful and not touch my eyes after touching ginger. now i know at least lol.

TW Gross

My mom told me that when she gave birth to my sister, my sister came out so forcefully my mom shot out a giant cannonball of blood. The doctor caught the baby, said "oh shit" and ducked out of the way real fast, and the blood splattered all over the wall. She was embarrassed, but it was cleaned up. Fast forward 3 years, she's in the delivery room with her sister. And that blood stain was still on the wall. She couldn't help but point it out to her sister and say "I did that"

Depends somewhat on the funnel.

I had this same dilemma a little while back when I made a spice rack for my dad. The funnel I had was a little silicone one (it was an effective size for a small spice bottle, whereas my larger plastic one was too big and I'd have probably knocked everything over using it).

The silicone one did the job, but I guess because of static electricity, it kept an awful lot of particles of herbs/spices stuck to it each and every time.

So that meant giving it a quick wash and a dry about 24 times whilst filling all the bottles. Definitely a lot more time consuming than I anticipated.
