The "Today" show listed some of the dishwasher hacks. Have you ever done any of these?

  • Wash your flip flops - Put them in the dishwasher with some baking soda, and they'll be squeaky clean. You can even put your baseball cap in there.
  • Clean tools and filters - This is for your gardening tools with plastic handles. Make sure you wash them separately, in case there are any chemicals on them.
  • Keep food warm - We know. This took us by surprise. Nystul suggests putting your dishwasher on heat/dry cycle or no water to warm up your food.
  • Cook salmon - This one was a shocker too. Wrap the fish in foil and run it through an entire cycle.
  • Plastic toys and silk flowers - Some of you may have already tried washing plastic toys in the dishwasher, but how about silk flowers? Just lay the flowers flat on the top rack and it will come out good as new.
