I caught my son eating old fruit??


Question:
Somehow, my 3 year old got ahold of a piece of fruit that had been stuck in a cabinet a few months ago. He ate some of it. How scared should I be? (By the way, we keep a very clean house, we just don't know how this happened!!!)

Answers:
he will be OK but if you feel better cal his Dr and get the info from the Dr also you son probably stashed the fruit so he could have it for later and forgot about it ...

Other Answers:
He'll be fine... just may act a little drunk from the fruit fermenting and he may get loose stool but no worries....
What kind of fruit?
natural stomach acid should kill most of the bacteria and he wont die

the worst that could happen is maybe throwing up or diarhea
dried fruit can be an excellent source of dietary fiber and vitamins. Depending on the age of this fruit maybe it's healthy. you can go to any science laboratory and have them date the fruit using carbon dating techniques common to most scientific inquiry.
dont be scared just the next time you go to get a checkupfor your son tell the doctor what happened and he'll give you some tips on what to do
he'll be fine...
i suggest a doctor, he is still young and learning.
Safety comes first
LIFE>MONEY
He might get a tummy ache and the runs but that should be about it. if this was a few months ago and he hasnt died he should be fine.
