My daughter and I had a discussion on the pros and cons of prewashing dishes before loading them into the dishwasher. We agree that it's a waste of time and energy and water. I got to thinking that we may be just lazy - so I did the research and found over 24,000 sites that say don't pre-wash. Yipeee.
One site: http://oklahoma4h.okstate.edu/scitech/4h2o/dirtydishes.pdf really shows just how much water is wasted by pre-washing. Now I feel so much better about loading them dirty - they get just as clean. Now if I only found a site that says to leave dishes on the counter for a week first...... Or maybe I need another dog.
