YES! I totally have a fear of food contamination. I'm a biochem major, so I know all about the germs and how the spread and whatnot. I am TERRIFIED of salad bars and whatnot, because the dressings just sit out and the produce is probably unwashed. I'm also a freak about washing my counters and cleaning my frige! It weirds people out sometimes how I am....I dunno. I'm also a freak about washing my hands, and I never know if the people who prepared my food are the same way...so it kinda freaks me out....

sooo glad to hear someone else is the same way!
