Dishcloths are probably the dirtiest thing in the house and we wash our dishes with them!

When you think about it they must be covered in months worth of bits of rotten food.

Well, I don't think there is too much contact between one person's beard and another person.
So at least the germs don't spread too easily.

<< Watch out bearded men, your facial hair might be dirtier than you think. Microbiologists in Albuquerque, N.M. recently found that men's facial hair can contain as much bacteria as your average toilet seat, according to Action 7 News. John Golobic, a microbiologist with Quest Diagnostics, swabbed a group of bearded men and analyzed the results to see how dirty the beards were. Golobic said that some of the men's facial hair contained bacteria that you would commonly find in a toilet. (...) But beards aren't the only thing found to be as dirty as a public restroom. Here's other items found to be dirtier than a toilet seat.
