My dad would frequently trot out "You'll eat a peck o' dirt before you die." - where peck would be the UK version of the volumetric measure: a little over 9 ltrs.
He had a very laid back approach to contamination due to his old-school farming background. I had a rather more strict approach when young but, with age, I have become much more relaxed and do use the phrase myself at times.
