Why are cellulose sponges better than plastic ones?🧐
kitchen sponges are exposed to hundreds of different types of bacteria daily and experts recommend replacing them regularly, which is problematic because plastic kitchen sponges take thousands of years to break down
cellulose sponges are a more sustainable choice because they can be sanitized/disinfected in boiling water - which is not recommended for plastic sponges
