it's not about what the dishwasher can handle, it's that it is disgusting to have decomposing food sitting in there, which it becomes after less than 24 hours
That's why they said scrape into the bin. You shouldn't have solid food sitting in your dishwasher, but you shouldn't be rinsing solid food down your drain anyway.
it's not about solid food. It's about whatever food remains sticking to the dishes. It stinks within hours.
I'm not sure what you're putting in there that stinks within hours but I can just say that hasn't been my personal experience. Do you not keep your dishwasher closed?
Then it molds. And the mold tends to survive the dishwasher.
I mean, again, I can only speak to my experience but I've never had mold grow in my dishwasher. I don't know exactly what it is I'm doing differently than y'all.
I am not using a dishwasher because ... gross. It's different when you have enough people to fill it in a day and run it.
