You gotta love the internet. You now hear and see things online that you may never have heard of or seen without it. Yes, maybe a possible chance of something showing up on the news channer or in the local paper but, some things were just not news worthy enough to make those methods. With the internet, you get it all; weird, strange, bizarre, disgusting vile….you name it, you have instant access to it as soon as it comes out…

What am I getting at you ask? Well, I actually heard about this last year, but never found the importance of writing about it until today, when I see it hit the Yahoo news. It’s called “Dishwasher Cooking”. This bizarre way of cooking has been around for quite some time. People are creating mysterious and magical recipes for making in their dishwashing machines. How different is that?
