I was just watching a video where someone dropped food and said “3 second rule right?” In english with this subtitle 3 秒ルール" Does anyone know if this phrase actually used in japanese? and if so is it 3 second? In Canada we always said 5 second rule.
さんびょうルール / ごびょうルール
Thanks!
Googled it and this came up.
In the section on variations it says
5秒ルールには様々なバリエーションがあり、3秒ルール、10秒ルール、15秒ルールと地域によってばらつきがある。また食品に対する環境や酔っ払いレベルにより、個人による引用のばらつきもある。例えばアメリカの大学の寮では多くの場合、5秒ルールの酔っ払いバージョンである10秒ルールがよく適用される。
Someone asked me once if we have the 3-second rule in America, and when I told them it was 5 they looked at me like I was crazy. It could entirely depend on region/family, which I’d imagine goes for Western countries as well.
In Germany we also have the 3 seconds rule.
But that only works if you don’t own a 2 seconds dog 
Sorry 
I love lucky star
