An American Redditor has sparked a debate about the best practice after you wash your dishes - with people seeming to have two very different opinions about what you should do once you have given your dishes a wash in the sink.
On Wednesday, u/criticalthinker225 posted in R/Ireland asking people "Do you rinse the soap off your dishes?" Adding in brackets: "Is this an Irish thing??"
In a lengthy post on the discussion site, the US native who has been living in Ireland for eight years made an observation that when dishes are hand-washed here, usually they are not rinsed after being cleaned with a sponge, adding that they are curious if this is an Irish tradition or just a strange habit of the people they know.
