Went looking for cornstarch at Publix yesterday and was told they had been out of it for several weeks. Haven't checked any other stores but is this the first supply chain disruption thing of 2023, or what?

Yeah it's been hit or miss. It's sold out most of the time since the pandemic, but then I'll see a nice big supply and scoop up a big bottle. Then it'll disappear again. But I've never seen a stretch this long without a single bottle on the shelves. I could still easily order it online but sellers on Amazon put a huge markup on there. I'm might just suck it up and do that. 2x of the big bottles for like $17.

Their bottles of garlic chili sauce have noticeably changed in color consistency, too. Still tastes good though, so I'm not complaining.

But drip drying has nothing to do with soap residue, surely? I don't bother to dry plates with a towel when they could just go in the drainer for a bit, but I do rinse the soap off first because I don't want to eat soap.

My first job in a hospital in a very small respiratory therapy dept, I watched my unit lead wash dishes in the break room sink and place them in a drying rack without any attempt at rinsing them or even using a towel to maybe dry them and remove a bit of the soap. This was about a decade ago and I still think about it every time I'm rinsing any dishes I'm handwashing. They were from a very small town, I tell myself this must be the reason but truthfully I'll never know. E: this is in West coast Canada and this person has never lived in NZ.

One of my roommates heard of this, tried it against our will and fed us all soap the next day. Roommate was reminded often of this grave misstep. Unless the soaps are weaker or unscented I don’t see how it’s tenable. SURELY there’s something going on where people aren’t just eating soap flavored food…..right?

I really want it to be one of those practices where, it's a bastardized version of something that actually makes sense. Like you don't have to rinse the soap off of a soup pot because you'd use it to rinse vegetables the next day anyhow, so you conserve soap and water. ...but this is humans we're talking about so the dumbest explanation has a good chance of being right

One the hard lessons staying in hostels and student accomodations with Brits. They insist the soap drips off. I learned to prewash any plate, glass, etc.
