when washing the dishes, is it better to hand wash or put them in a machine...which uses the most water?

Also...completely different question...can you eat goldfish...? I say yes but my friend says no.....

Dishes......Machine - less water used with modern Triple A Rated Machines. Also more hygenic as the water in the machine can get to 70 degrees centigrade which will kill off 99% of known bugs that cause harm to humans, where as handwashing the water is barely 40 degrees before we cannot stand the heat.



Fish....Certain varieties.

Also a good tip when putting on your dishwasher,

put your dish washing sponges etc in as well it really sterilises them

dishwasher but only if you leave it until you have a full load (more hygienic as well) also bear in mind the powder/tablets used in a dishwasher is caustic which could harm the septic tank.

Daisy, why not try cooking goldfish in the dishwasher, maybe a little like steaming?

Let me know as if any good will try harder at the Fair to win a few!!!
