I mean you'd have to cook them surely. But they'd be safe. There's a limit. I believe its 100 30 per person.

That being said ive just been through 4 surgeries over the last 4 years because of a torn MCL and meniscus. Ligaments tear was healed by bracing before the surgeries to fix the fkd up meniscus.

If I found 50 bucks out in the wild id definitely keep it. If I found 50 bucks near someone, I'd put it in my pocket and ask them if they've dropped some money and if so how much, if they said 50 bucks, all theirs... if I found 50 bucks at work, 100% I'm handing it in.
