Yes, we are pretty much on the same page. I use two towels in my
kitchen. One (terry) is for my hands, the other (lint-free) is for
drying dishes, glassware, and cookware. Since it is only used on things
that have been washed, I am not so worried about it carrying bad germs.
Also, both towels hang on a rod, and are NEVER placed on the counter.

So, I have to say that I'm puzzled about your two responses. I'm looking
for a way to keep my kitchen towels from falling onto the floor. You
post a message about your philosophy of sanitation, don't suggest any
equipment, but in general, imply that towels on the floor ... what ...
aren't a problem?

Then, you follow up with someone who was making the same point, but disclose
that you keep your towels on a rod.

Why don't you keep them on the floor? :-)

Why did you hijack my towel thread to discuss your sanitation philosophy? :-)

-I- have a problem with going through the motions of washing my dishes,
then drying them with towels which have fallen on the floor. Thus, I'm
looking for suggestions from the community on equipment which might keep
that situation from arising. Hence, my post in rec.food.equipment.

If you think that my sanitation ideas are out of line, that's fine. I'm
sure it will make for a lively discussion in rec.food.sanitation.philosophy.
But it's not helping me, the original poster, at all.

Kitchen towels. Equipment to keep them from falling on the floor.
Any ideas?

:-)
