    Here we go again, the mantra of washing laundry in cold water

    Here we go again, the mantra of washing laundry in cold water

    Nasty Maybe I’m the only one in the free work that still hand washes dishes using a dishpan, but can you imagine what the dishpan would look like if one only used cold water? Top or front loader washing machines are going to be gunked up with pure nastiness with constant use of cold water...
