Ongoing argument - DH doesn't understand sanitation and is bringing sh*t into our kitchen!

[Anonymous]

I'm with the dishwasher/ boiling crowd for the pot. But a point you should make to DH is that the time the brush spends in the kitchen pre- boiled is the problem. Even of just carried in, stuff could fall off onto countertops etc.(just as it does with cat paws as pp mentioned)

Me, too.

OP, another biologist here and I am 100% with you.

Also, horrified by how many people seem to think this is fine.

PP here. Sorry, still so horrified I forgot to answer your original question. I would clean the pot like crazy but keep it.

There has to be some basic educational videos about food hygiene somewhere although I don't know if you DH is open to learn? Geez, Sesame Street or something like that?

I once found DH in the kitchen cleaning mud off his shoes with the brush I use for washing dishes.

So you are not alone, OP.

The world is covered in a thin coating of excrement. It is everywhere. Nothing is truly clean unless it was just removed from an autoclave.
