3 Things You Didn't Know You Can Wash in Your Dish

I bet these are 3 things you didn't know you could put in your dishwasher.

1 . Sink bits and parts. We have a garbage disposal part that makes it go and it can get dirty and stinky. I love putting that in the dishwasher for a clean rinse, as well as our strainer that catches food.

2. Sponges!! When they start to smell, I wash them a few times to make them last longer before replacing.

3. Hats!! Most people think this is crazy, but I love doing it. When they get dirty, oily, sweat stained or have an odor, I like to wash them. However the laundry can affect the shape, so I put them in the dishwasher. It does a perfect job. But I ONLY wash them with other hats. I don't wash them with dirty dishes or food scraps.

What do you like to put in the dishwasher?

Multiple bras in various colors (purple, white, peach, light blue) are soaking in soapy water in a sink. Overlay text reads, 'Tbh if it doesn't smell bad, i ain't washing it,' accompanied by a laughing emoji, reflecting a common opinion on bra washing frequency.
how many times do you wear a bra before wash?
I’ll usually wear mine twice but one of my coworkers said that’s gross. For context, I work in an area that’s kept at 40 degrees, so no sweating. I thought two days was fine and I buy rather expensive bras so I didn’t want to wash and wear them down too fast. Am I actually gross for that? #AskL
