Is it okay to eat some snacks after touch other objects? Also, is this issue being a germaphobe?

A few days ago I was eating chips ahoy cookies. But I stopped eating them because I touched my laptop keyboard and my mouse. I want to eat them but I'm worried that the germs and bacteria on my laptop keyboard and the mouse would be on the cookies when I eat causing issues. So I'm safe to eat them and it will not cause any health Issues? And the digestive enzymes and stomach acid will get rid of any germs and bacteria on the cookies when I eat them?

    I eat and work on the computer all the time. Same thing with being on my phone. You should be fine but everyones immune system is different. If your really worried you could clean the mouse and keyboard first. That way you don't have to worry while your eating. But just a warning it may make a mess so you might have to clean up afterwards.
