    Lol, I just flipped my toaster, knowing it has crumb trays. The blender cleaning hack is genius.

    • @smallfootprint2961
      @smallfootprint2961 Рік тому +23

      Not a 'hack.' In the instructions that comes with the blender, it says to run it with a drop of dish washing soap, and water after using. Easy peasy.

    The CRUMB tray !!! I had no idea and my mom came over- she started cleaning my kitchen and well she pulled the tray out and bam 💥 a lot of crumbs she said “you won’t have to worry in time or crisis, you can make your own loaf 🍞 with all these crumbs” 😅😅❤

  • @marlenegold280
    @marlenegold280 Рік тому +70

    Even with the crumb trays clean, bits of burnt toast can hide in the crevices of the toaster… some are too big to slide out with the crumb tray.
    So a flip, tap and shake over the kitchen sink is needed.

    The crumb tray isn't really a hack it's a literal function of the toaster. That's like having a fridge and saying "use this hack to make ice- fill the water tank with water and wait 8 hours and there will be ice in this drawer in your freezer!" It's not an ice hack it's just something the appliance does 😂

    My partner took apart our toaster and the amount of bread comes that come out of thing just shows how much the tray doesn't collect! If you know someone who knows how to take apart a toaster and put it back together you should definitely try it but if not then shaking it upside down is definitely a must cause those trays don't collect as much crumbs as you think!

    I looked all over for my crumb tray on my toaster and just became convinced it didn’t have one. Then one day it stopped working and after looking it over I saw a little slot that was poking out. It was spring loaded and must have gotten jostled in our recent move activating the spring. Obviously I didn’t read the manual and the only thing written on the toaster was a tiny little symbol, still not sure how I missed it. Once I pushed it back in (after dumping the tray out for the first time in eight years) the toaster started working again.

    The thing is, that blender is as you said rinsed not washed, those blender specifically (I have one that’s exactly the same) have tons of books and crannies you can only reach and clan properly with brushes like the inside of the blade rod, it may seem clean but I can assure you that’s not washed. Get in there with a sponge/ brush and actually wash it because there’s so much material that’s left to build up when you just rinse off something, genuinely I’m disappointed and kinda disgusted and I’m 18, how are you a full grown adult that doesn’t actually wash your own dishes

    • @radhiadeedou8286
