Q: A recent Buzzfeed survey found that 64% of people admit to doing this after they finish eating?

A: Licking their fingers clean

According to a recent survey by Buzzfeed, 70% of us sometimes use our finger as a spoon to eat things like peanut butter or icing when we eat cake.  Here are eight more gross eating stats . . .

  1. Do you ever eat food that’s fallen on the floor?  57% said yes.
  1. Do you ever lick your fingers clean after you eat?  64% admitted to it.
