The most bizarre dishwasher hack you’ll ever see
Dishwashers are arguable one of the most useful appliances in the home, let alone the kitchen.
Thankfully, there are cleaning prodigies who have some of the most useful tips and the most recent one to go viral has left users in a head spin.
Aussie mum Carolina Mccauley has shared her odd but crucial tip to get sparkling silverware – and it involves a ball of aluminium foil.
She says all you need to do is a throw a ball of aluminium foil in with your cutlery before turning on the dishwasher.
"This dishwasher hack will leave your silverware sparkling," she captioned the video on TikTok.
If you roll some tin foil into a ball and place in the cutlery holder of your dishwasher, your forks, spoons, and knives will come out sparkling like new.
It's definitely an odd tip, but the results show it does make a difference.
The video has been watched over 123,000 times so far.
"Why does my brain think it's not okay to put aluminium foil inside appliances because of the microwave," one TikToker wrote.
Another said, "What the scientific magic is this?"
The magic behind the foil has been revealed, with Dashing Maids writing that the chemical reaction from the foil and a dishwasher tablet is what gives cutlery its incredible shine.
