Has a spoon ever dropped down your sink/disposal?

I took it out and sprayed it with antibacterial cleaning spray, then washed it with dish soap, then put it in dishwasher..but other utensils I've also just thrown away on the rare occasion ,if it fell down the dirty drain. Do you disinfect it or throw it away?

Often enough I think 2/3 of our spoons have rough sharp edges from the disposal. Between the spoons and the forks that almost all have one tine bent askew, I think it's time to buy a new set of flatware.

@Starcrossed well then you should celebrate the fact that you taught them to use cutlery at all!

@Cowboybob lmao ... sometimes they fail at that too.

I have never done that.

But I presume anything metal would be fine after a clean.

Maybe not wood. But it depends on how exposed it got, I suppose.

Yes, I know which one it is, because I turned it on with the spoon down there and it got all dented up….

@fun4us2b So you did keep it

A couple of them and they got ruined before I turned the disposal off.

I never lost a spoon down the drain at all.

The worst part is when the disposal nicks the spoon so that it has a little rough spot forever after

@Cowboybob Exactly, this was nicked too. I'm thinking of just tossing it.

@Coralmist unless it’s part of a set. It’s always tough to break up a set

I think disinfection is enough.

Yes. It makes an unGodly racket.

@badminton Did you keep it?

Of course! Far more than once. ☹
Coralmist · 41-45, F
@Musicman Did you just clean it and keep it?
Musicman · 61-69, MVIP
@Coralmist Absolutely! I'm certainly not throwing it away.
Musicman · 61-69, MVIP
@Coralmist I just washed It and was put it back in the drawer. That's happened at least a half dozen times over the years. When I went to use it again I never got sick or anything.
