[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, I use hand towels for drying produce. The reason I have a pile by dinner time is bc I don’t reuse hand towels, they get washed [/quote]

PP who asked this question. Not challenging, just curious - at breakfast I wash berries and lightly pat dry, at lunch I wash and dry an apple, at dinner I wash and dry various veggies for roasting or stir frying, for snacks I wash and dry another fruit maybe a mango or cherry tomatoes or a cucumber. do you keep one towel set aside each day for produce drying, in addition to the towel you are using for the cleaning purposes in OP’s question?

I feel like it would constantly be a challenging to enforce my family keeping the produce towel separate from the cleaning towel. And then at least 2 towels a day to wash, in my house likely more like 3 bc one towel could not serve to replace a day’s worth of paper towel usage in my house. [/quote]

I posted above but 2-3 hand towels a day is my norm.  I think it is absurd not to reuse them a few times.  I have a separate one for drying stuff as opposed to hands.

But washing a few hand towels per day is really nothing.  A load of laundry per week max.  I throw them in with whatever else.  The washer cleans things, I don’t fuss about how clean things are beforehand.  That seems weird to me but DCUM has a lot of hang ups about things that don’t bother me.[/quote]
