The FoodOboz editorial team shares a list of the 5 most unnecessary kitchen items you should eliminate.

Old dishwashing sponges

Dishwashing sponges are the main source of bacteria in the kitchen. They need to be changed regularly, once a week. It is important to know that to keep the sponge dry and clean for as long as possible, fix it after use with a paper clip or buy a special sponge hook.

If you want to eliminate germs and unpleasant odors on the sponge in a minute, you can heat it in the microwave for 1 minute.

Stale cotton towels and rags

Almost every kitchen has cotton towels that everyone uses. However,  it is better to replace them with disposable paper napkins that do not accumulate unpleasant odors and germs. But if you do have towels in the kitchen, they need to be changed and washed 1-2 times a week.

Recommendations

Extra mugs

Mugs take up a lot of space on shelves and are often not even used. So you should keep a few and hide the rest in a closet. This way, you'll free up a lot of space for the things you need.

Plastic containers
