To PRE-WASH or NOT PRE-WASH?
That is the question! Pre-washing actually causes dish issues!
Before receiving my Cascade Platinum kit I had no ideas I had been doing it wrong all of these years. I was always taught that you pre-wash so you didn't put food down the dishwasher drain. But now that I've actually tried the no pre-wash method I will never go back. I honestly do think my dishes are coming out cleaner now. I can say from past experience I would wash out things like a brownie pan and then after I ran it through the dishwasher it would sometimes still have dried on bits on it. And now that I'm skipping the pre-wash my brownie pan is coming out spotless!
Thanks to my Cascade Platinum sharing package I was able to send home ten packages of dishwasher detergent and rinse aid with some friends and family members after we shared a nice meal together. We sat around talking about how dish-washing had changed over the years and well, is still changing today thanks to brands like Cascade.

- Almost half (42%) of respondents have actually gone so far as to re-load the dishwasher after their family goes to bed because they did not think their family member(s) did it right the first time.
- More than half (56%) of respondents load their dishwashers after each meal.
- The majority of survey respondents (57%) cringe at the thought of hosting a party because of spotted wine glasses.
