I'm pretty OCD. How safe is it to eat Celery from Trader Joes, or Costco?

So, I love celery..But I'm so picky, you know? When we buy celery from the store, it looks fine. But when I get home and I wanna snack on a full stalk, the bottom of it is..Dirty. Dirt. My mom says its normal, and if I'm so picky about it, I could just wash it..But I mean, I don't wanna >_>

So she just stopped buying it..But..I CAN'T HELP IT. When I see anything on there that is discolored, I freak out..I even do it with carrots, and those little stems on top. I take a knife and I just slice it off.
Same with celery. Even if its BIG piece with dirt on it, i cut that piece off.

Should I really be worried? Please tell me its just my OCD.
