if your phone fell...

[stopdropandroll]

... into/onto something you were eating, would you finish eating it after? during breakfast this morning i dropped my phone into yoghurt & granola, then finished eating after rescuing it. as an emetophobe i’m now having second thoughts in terms of germs from the phone - any reassurance?

Do you wash your hands every time you touch your phone?

I wouldn’t think twice about finishing the breakfast. There’s acid in your stomach and white blood cells in your blood for a reason

I wouldn't think twice, but I'm very lax about germs

Yes, after I’d licked it off the phone!

Just kidding, I’d wipe the phone then eat the rest of the breakfast, no problems, and whilst I’m not an emetophobe, I HATE well ‘you know’ so I am VERY careful around food hygiene.

i wash my hands before eating every time! my phone gets cleaned maybe once a week but i take the tube to work so it’s definitely germy in between

It's fine, you'll be fine - unless you dropped your phone in some poo lately and didn't wipe it down after. Everything we touch is a bit germy, it's just how life is. A little bit of exposure goes a long way to building your immune system :)

I would 100% still eat my breakfast!
