How 'germ-conscious' are you?

[MKR&*42]

Blurgh,

I was just wondering how 'germ-conscious' you guys are, so that's like how fussed you are over germs (e.g. not sharing food with others)?

I'm completely obsessed with it, I don't share food with anyone (even my own family :L - it's like a challenge for me to eat from the same butter tub as them LOL), share drinks - and if people get too close to me, it's just ewww even their breath annoys me LOL.

But ye, I only got germ obsessed 'cause of the whole Swine flu thing which made everyone panic and think that they were gonna get it, so yeah I was like -washes hands for 20 mins -.

But yeah, are you lot germ-conscious or not really bothered... seriously, if you can pick up a piece of food off the floor and eat it, Ewww.

i'm not germ-conscious at all. cleaning requires doing. i'm impatient. i don't like sharing cups or bottles but that's it. i'll even eat from someone's food they've already bitten but won't let them do it to mine. i can eat food that i drop on the floor, what a waste lol obv if it's not in a dusty or dirty place

A little, I wash my hands thoroughly and frequently, I try to avoid touching bathroom door handles with my bare hands but I'm happy to share food/drink depending on the person.

Not at all. Dettol adverts are annoying and people who use it deserve the illnesses they're inevitably going to get. Doctors do not support it and germs are good for building a natural, healthy immunity. I won't share food with some people, though, but that's usually because I don't like what they're eating I guess it depends to what degree you consider comfortable when sharing food.

I won't eat something that someone else has literally drooled on, but I don't mind eating something that has been placed on the same fork someone has eaten off, though if the fork has been placed on a kitchen countered covered in stuff I won't use it, so I guess that's out of hygiene, but not necessarily germs - cross-contamination.

I'm only a little germ conscious. Sharing drinks I don't really mind, depending on the person. Sharing food is okay with me ishhh. I wash my hands quite a lot. I won't eat food if it drops on the floor, regardless to how long it's been on there or if it's a really clean surface!

never share drinks, thats just eww.. dont mind sharing finger food (chips etc.) but would never let someone bite a burger then bite it after.. vile, dont eat dropped food all apart from that i'm not very germ-concious

I would say I am to an extent I hate using public toilets and I carry hand gelaround. I don't really mind sharing food tbh but I hate sharing my drink

[tylermunjkt]

I never eat off the floor-throws up- nor pick up things that have fell on the floor (eg. fork etc) I wouldnt share a drink with someone, but sharing food is ok i suppose. I shared a pizza once with ma friend..

[:odey:]

If the person has a cold or something, I am SO conscious, I cannot stand colds.. haha,

But usually I wouldn't careless with sharing food or drink or anything like that, haha

The only think I don't like, is straws.. I can't use the same straw as someone else, but I could drink out of the same cup...

Weird, right? :S

LMAO same tom. When people have coughs and they don't cover their mouths i'm like
but yea it's not something that enters my mind really. I share my food and don't mind drinking from a bottle after someone else has.
