To think using the kitchen sink for this is revolting.

[BertieBott]

Essential a kitchen sink is a food prep area. It is for washing food, hands and plates. Maybe sluicing off things that are fairly clean (e.g. getting rid of the water from a flower vase) and filing water containers or attaching a hose.

I think the following are revolting -

• washing babies (at some level you are washing off poo and wee)
• washing pets (same as above)
• brushing teeth (spitting in a food prep area)
• emptying mop buckets (pour it down the toilet)
• washing/dying/cutting hair in the kitchen- hair in food prep area
• washing clothes and shoes in a food prep area.

Aibu ?

Oh and not everyone has a utility room, or a double sink!

I have a utility room and it's fucking massive and brilliant blah blah blah, but I never had one before I lived in this house. I couldn't get worked up about any of your issues. A) because I clean, really well .. and B) because I can't even be bothered to worry about nothing.

"Yes, I know saliva is also on spoons, but the act of spitting in a place you prepare food is horrid."

Oh fucking spare me. 🙄 I envy someone with so much free time they can come on MN and start a pearl clutching thread like this. Although I don't envy how lame it is and how sad you are.

To be fair I do have a double sink. One side is used for pouring mop water down, emptying the bed pan, cutting hair from the dogs shitty arse and on the odd occasion relieving myself. The other side is the "food prep" sink so is only used for washing spring onions
