Now, I have a question! Having been raised in California, and not really gone anywhere east of Vegas, there is something I need to know. My housemate is from back east somewhere (moved alot as a kid) and he has a habit of taking a towel in the kitchen, doesn't matter if it is a hand towel or dish towel, and he puts it in the sink, to wash the dishes with. He said that when he was growing up, everyone in this particular city used a "wet towel" to wash dishes. I have never heard of such a thing, and since I have limited exposure to east coast customs, I thought that I would present it to you people, see what you think. Has anyone ever heard of anything like this?

The kind that you use to DRY the dishes in the old days, plus, he throws the "wet rag" in the sink, throws food on top of it, along with dirty dishes, he says that this is the way it was done in his childhood! WIERD!Now that is strange.
