I know that you’re really bad at connecting the dots, sometimes.
But don’t you think you could have tried to the read the Spanish powder soap bag a little closer when you were in the store? Surely you should have thought to be EXTRA sure that the soap was intended for washing dishes in the dishwasher, and not by hand in the sink…right?
And as a future note to self…putting only 1/3 of the recommended soap required (just to be safe) does not prevent catastrophes in the dishwasher. Plumbers can repair plumbing issues with sinks and dishwashers.
The wrong soap is still the wrong soap.
Lesson learned!
