He dishwashes daily? How inefficient.
Unless they have enough plates and utensils and are willing to risk a mold problem to save up plates with gunks of food over the course of a week to run the dishwasher at good efficiency, it’s far simpler, cheaper, and more hygienic to just wash them by hand.

In that amount, yes. But usually, dishwasher is more efficient and hygienic
In hindsight I should have used “or” instead of “and”.
But of course! I really miss having a dishwasher since I flew back home from the US. I know that they absolutely do a better job at cleaning than humans can, and loading it up properly and keeping it organized is such dopamine hit for my OCD brain.
If you live alone, though, I’d advise against using it, or at least get a way smaller dishwasher.
That’s one beautiful teaspoon
I mean it at least forces you to do your dishes
I use plastic plates, drink directly out of the tap, have one set of chop sticks and my kitchen knife is the pocket knife I carry everyday.
Sometimes you need more than one teaspoon during a meal? Say if you have soup and tea and hate to eat soup with the tablespoon.
premature optimisation
It happens sometimes.
He never has dishes
you can honestly get by with just a spoon. need a butter knife? use the spoon handle. need to jab something? just scoop it instead. need to cut something? just cook it a little more so it gets soft
OP is a fancy one with their actual silverware. When i was a bachelor, it was box of plastic forks, box of plastic spoons, and box of plastic knives.
Saving up for singular silverware would probably save you money in the long run
it’s not even silver, more like stainless steel around here.
Same here. My poitn being you can get a fork knife and spoon for under 5 bucks. Saves on the single use cutlery.
I usually get them from take out places or the cafeteria. Never bought any single use items during my bachelor years.
And less microplastics
And less trash to take care of.
I was so bad at keeping on top of washing my dishes in Uni that I absolutely decided to have exactly 1 plate, cup, mug,and each cutlery. Can’t have more dirty dishes than you have dishes.
This is the way. Friends think I really like this one bowl. Truth is I like an empty sink, so I force myself to wash it by only owning one bowl.
I just recently got rid of 90% of my silverware and over half my plates and bowls for this very reason
Been travelling in an RV for a while now. Family of 3. Have 3 forks, 2 knives (because adults cut the kid’s food) and 4 plates since you need somewhere to put food off the BBQ that isn’t someone’s plate. It’s glorious. So easy to clean up.
You cannot convince me this man is not a serial killer.
He is not your friend, he is just keeping you around for a time when he can’t find some else and feels the urge to kill again.
I actually love this. It’s clean organized and simplified!
It’s all he needs
I did this for a few years and it was amazing.
as a single dad living with one teenager kid, the two plate strategy was a total game changer.
