Many of my plastic containers taste like soap. I use Dawn Green Apple Antibacterial. Any suggestions on how to get rid of it? Real lemon? Vinegar? Since I'm dieting every bite is precious and I can't stand tasting soap in my meals all the time! How can I prevent this from happening again aside from using the dishwasher? (I think it's ridiculous to use a dishwasher for 1 person). Thanks in advance!

    Maybe you're using too much soap or not rinsing them well enough?

    You just reminded me to start my dishwasher. Thanks! Lol

    Try other scents/brands? Buy new ones if they doesn't work.

    Kat: yeah i guess a combination of both. i've started diluting the soap with water first in another bowl or something before pouring it into a container to wash it.

    julie: Haha glad i could help. Thanks.

    Unrelated note: OP, I had to click your picture and make it bigger because I wasn't sure if you were breastfeeding that baby. Awkward.
