Proper Care of Dish Cloths and Kitchen Towels

(Yes, that is a fresh pan of brownies on the stove.) Dish cloths and kitchen towels fall into a different category of ‘typical’ laundry.  Like cloth diapers, kitchen towels need to be washed in their own load of towels – not with jeans, tshirts, underwear and the like. Kitchen towels and dish cloths are the perfect environment for efficient breeding of bacteria:  they’re wet, often scrunched in a ball (so they don’t dry out), often warm and sometimes hiding in a dark place waiting to be washed. I will readily admit that I switch kitchen towels and dish cloths often.
