if someone sprays disinfectant and i can smell it from the other side of the room does that mean all the food in that room is contaminated with disinfectant?

    I think you mean pungent, I made the same mistake before.

    And no, it just means that you can smell disinfectant.

    Can you even contaminate things with a decontaminant?

      If you drank disinfectant it would be bad for you, so I would say that you can contaminate food with it

      You absolutely can. Many commercial disinfectants and detergents (including dish soap) are poison.

      Good question! It’s all relative. There are things for which water would be considered a contaminant, but we don’t balk at adding it to our tea! :-D
