The Dishwashing Debate

Lindsay at Passionate Homemaking just posted a great article about the dishwashing debate. She gives statistics from three different styles of washing:
1. the dishwasher
2. washing dishes by hand using running water
3. washing dishes by hand using a filled sink basin.

Perhaps the most eye opening part for me was her research on bacteria left on items from hand-washing vs. dishwashing.

It's a good read!
