Did You Know...

I know this is so random, but did you know that the kitchen sponge is one of the biggest germ magnets! (Insert "ewwwwwwwww" here.) 

The two most effective strategies to clean this ubiquitous domestic tool:
1. Microwave it for 1 minute (be careful as the sponge may get hot!).  This kills 99.9% of bacteria ad 99% of yeasts and molds.

2. Dishwashing with a drying cycle kills 99.9% of bacteria and 99% of yeasts and molds.
