Dishwasher- *RInse Only* Cycle

[toggleswitch]

Actually to avoid tomato sauce stains:
I don't wash plastic cutting boards (the only plastic I have except for childrens' dishware and cups for the nieces, and my Brita "bottle") in the machine when there is red sauce.

BTW=> Heated dry "sets" stains on plastique DW interiors.

Also, this Cascade product [in he following link] has peroxide in it and bleaches your plastics (and DW tub) clean. Leaves a nice pine smell behind too.

No more bad odors.

...said to remove odors too. I'd say it masks them, but you say "tomato" I say to-MAH-to."

Pine scented dishes?? Yuk. Why, all of a sudden, do dishwasher detergents seem to come in every imaginable scent? What are they hiding with all these citrus, pine scents anyway? If a dishwasher and detergent did their jobs properly, there should be no residue to even HAVE a scent. What's next - rinse agent that smells of cinnamon-apple?

Hiding?

Usually some fairly disagreeable chemicals. At least, that's why chlorine based detergents were scented.

Cascade back in the 70's had a scent that to me, was slightly "pine."

I like scented household chemicals, but I like them to have rapidly dissipating scents.

Actually I don't like scents in laundry or dishes.

But I'm willing to accept a pine scent IN THE MACHINE, since I don't use the additive with dishes.

Response:
Don't you love all these plug-in air-fresheners?

1- Let's put a greasy film on every surface in EVERY room and make it impossible to keep clean-- just like a kithcen.

2-If you cleaned your place once in a while you wouldn't have to mask the odors with another one.

3- What is wrong with opening a window?

4- Do you think it is smart to add artifical chemicals to a space --constantly? Can you say C A N C E R?
