Can you provide an example of how relaxed you've been about dirt and germs?

In Tibet, and many parts of the world, people eat out of communal pots in the middle of the table. Everyone dips into the pot with their chopsticks.

In America, some women are so clean, they marry their houses (become housewives) and spend their lives keeping them clean. No bug or spider is tolerated. The bathrooms must be spic and span at all times, and numerous smell destroyers are deployed to keep all noxious smells hidden.

I want stories that exemplify your attitude towards dirt. How unsanitary can it be and you will still eat it or sleep in it or whatever. Or, how far will you go to make sure it’s clean enough to eat off of? Whatever it is.
