I'm half and half, but I voted yes just because if it drops on the floor in my house, or on a table somewhere I go often, then I'll pick it up and eat... Unless it was something sticky or saucy...

Problem isn't really the bacteria, though yes, it sticks instantly and you're pretty much ruined the food.
The real issue is that you pick up a lot more than just germs and bacteria. The floor has lots of nasty stuff on it, many of which we can't see. If you can argue that our digestive track will kill all of it, then thats like saying there is no point in washing your hands.
