a dishwasher takes up like 4 gallons, unless it’s old in which case it might use 9-14 gallons. Same source indicates up to 27 gallons per load of dishes washed by hand
hahahahaha I saw a struggle session on here like a while back where people were saying it was wasteful to use a dishwasher and you should wash by hand. My laziness is vindicated :tofu-cool:
I would definitely do that if there's food chunks still Id rather they go down the drain and be my landlord's problem than have them stuck in the dishwasher filter
To be honest that's a minority thing from my experience. Most white people use their dishwasher if they have it. If you don't have one you're probably lower income or in a space that can't fit one.
Asians and Hispanics have non stop running jokes about how the dishwasher is just a drying rack. Their immigrant parents are worried about the electrical and water use. Most people see highly pressured water that comes out of a modern dishwasher or power washers and don't realize that it's using less water. They just see The velocity of the water and assume it's using more than it actually is.
The reason the water usage is so low is cause it's recycled over and over through the system. There's absolutely no argument against using a dishwasher.

Also the best soap is the powder, not the pods, because you can put some powder in for the prerinse and some in the little box for the main rinse.
The pods/gel are basically just the powder with the water added for you.

I mean you could probably use less than 27 gallons but it's hard to imagine beating 4 gallons, lol

Don't tell that to my in-laws. They go nuts. They also hate the way i wash dishes by my hand so at least i don't have to do that with them around
I remember that.
