i think you not understand the jist of bhakti's story ( great story by the way Bhakti first time i hear this version) the devis just washed their skin and as a result so pure were them that even the dirt was pure enough to create a devi however by the means of her creation she could perform the function given isnot shakti worship beautiful.

I am glad you confirmed that the 'mel' was not actually dirty, this is what I mean to say! The 'dirt' from a devi's body is never actually dirty!
I was just surprised that Meldi Ma needed to bathe in the Ganga before getting worshipped, but if that is just a divine pastime then I guess it is kind of sweet.
