GOOD GRIEF! It's a freakin' dishrag! Use it, throw it in the hamper,
get out a clean one. If it stinks it's dirty with food, bacteria, mold.
I'm no clean freak but it's not like you have to take out a loan to
buy enough dish clothes to last between loads of laundry. Why use
stopgap measures on something that cheap that you RUB ON YOUR DISHES?
