Exactly, I never rinse, ever. I do take off the excess food and bones,
a quick scrape into the garbage that I would do no matter how I
was washing the dishes.

I've had to physically stop my mother from rinsing the dishes, she
is so sure you have to do that. No, that's what the dishwasher
is for. Heck, first thing it does is rinse the dishes!

I'm with you, and I don't even especially mind doing dishes. It's a
waste of time water and me to wash a few dishes every night, just
stick them in the machine and turn it on when it's full or I'm out of
forks or something.

My dishwasher broke a few weeks ago, you betcha I had a new
(and scary) dishwasher in its place pronto.
