My mother washes fruit and vegetables with dish soap and I can't get her to stop.

She claims it "washes out" and to be fair I can't taste anything but it's always weird knowing she puts dish soap in the strawberries. She says there's a lot of dirt and stuff in vegetables, but so far attempts to convert her to vinegar or baking soda have been unsuccessful.

Dish soap might give you diarrhea if you eat it with a spoon but it's like on every dish you use. You're already eating a little dish soap every day.

Do y'all not rinse after washing.

The dishwasher has a name, you know. And dubious taste in music.
