Cleaning Tip of Day: Your Kitchen Sink

Remember that your sink is typically the first line of defense in your home to prevent germs in your kitchen. And while you can have clean dishes, what about the cleanliness of the sink itself?

Each sink type has a best method for cleaning...and if you have:

• Stainless steel: use a nontoxic all-purpose cleaner or distilled white vinegar on a sponge. Never use steel wool or abrasive cleaners. Spot clean with baking soda on a damp sponge and always scrub "with the grain"
• Porcelain: use baking soda on a damp sponge and avoid abrasive cleaners. Or use a cream cleanser or non-abrasive to assist with difficult stains
• Composites/Quarts: use cream cleansers or distilled white vinegar on a sponge
