     The 10 second rule simply states that if you drop a
piece of food (for the sake of on-topicness, a jalapeno
popper) on the floor you may pick it up and eat it as long
as it hasn't been on the floor for more than 10 seconds.
     The rule does not apply if you drop somebody *else's*
food on the floor.  You may only apply it to your own
victuals.
