Hygiene expert Lisa Yakas reveals that your kitchen sink ranks among the dirtiest spots in the home—often just marginally cleaner than your sponge or dishcloth. Proper maintenance is essential for a healthy kitchen.
Lisa advises a thorough deep clean once a week. After handling raw meat or scrubbing dirty potatoes? Perform an immediate spot clean to eliminate bacteria.
