Stop eating detergent

This is an issue that annoyes me constantly since I moved here: Not rinsing your dishes after washing them in a soapy water. I know, some people wipes them after washing (still not enough) but I know that a lot of people out there are not bothering with wiping. They leave plates on the rack to dry with washing liquid on then serve food to their family in them. Imagine the amount of detergent you eat in all of your life! In my theory, that's the one of the reasons of cancer spreading among people rapidly.

Eating out... It's another story. Since I moved here, (as an immigrant doesn't matter what is your qualification in your first country, you have to start from cleaning jobs which I also have done) I work at cafes and restaurants. Witnessing the way of washing up in the kitchens where I used to work was a real shock to me. Washing all the cups and plates in a soupy-soapy dirty water and then wiping them with a smelly tea towells!!! I used to complain to my boss and asked him if we can rinse them after washing. He wasn't bothered of course and I was the one who blamed on as a weird person with the weird requirements.

I can hear (not really), some of you say 'what about the dishwashers'. That's another subject and here is the truht: They are as dangerous as the way you do handwashing if it is not more. Dishwashers (not the domestic ones) don't rinse the plates and cups, just wash everything with a previously used hot enough water that kills organisms. The water that dishwasher uses contains bleach and harsh detergent which stays on the plates and the cups. Worst than that, tea pots and milk jugs always got a little bit bleachy-soapy water left in them because nobody bothers to dry them thinking, water is hot enough and kills the germs. So, in any restaurant (doesn't matter how luxurious it is), when you have your lovely meals, you also have a bit bleach and detergent. If you have a tea, you already have your tea pre-brewed by bleachy water in your teapots waiting for you. Milk jugs... same. Oh, I must mention the food smears that from diswasher happly sticking in your tea pots and jugs too. Bon appetit.

No, I am not paranoid. I just reduced down the amount of eating out and I always rinse my plates after washing them as I have done all of my life. I am suggesting it to you. It is easier than wiping them with smelly tea towels and you don't have to wash teatowels because you won't own them because you won't need them.
