I'm playing host at my seaside cottage to a couple I've known for years, and their two children, ages 5 (F) and 3 (M).
Moment of panic when one of the other grown-ups set the oven glove on fire, and suffered a burn to his finger. Taking advantage of the momentary diversion, the 3-year-old grabbed the foil-wrapped Oxo cube, and scurried away into the sitting-room. None of the adults noticed.
While the burn was being soaked under a running tap for the requisite 15 mins, the 5-year-old brought 90% of the Oxo cube (now unwrapped) back, telling us that she'd noticed her brother making a funny face. It had very small teeth-marks on it.
It transpires that he thought it was chocolate. He won't be taking food from the kitchen table any more.
Other points to note:
Flammable Oven Gloves are a no-no. Whoever thought that a polyester filling would be a good idea?
15 mins of running cold water for a burn really does seem to work. I've never had the patience before, as it always seems cold enough after just a minute.
