Cascade Dishwasher Soap

Just a quick question:

I have a lousy dishwasher and there are always spots all over my glasses and dishes.

Should Cascade be a concern.

Thanks, Lisa

I also use a product in my dishwasher called Glass Magic, you sprinkle it in the d/w bottom and wash as normal. Works great!

I use Cascade, no problems, my dishwasher is also lousy. Sadly, it is the only name brand appliance in our kitchen. It is GE, it sounds as if it will fall through the floor any minute. The rest of our appliances are Caloric and they are going strong, even though they look old. :)

Years ago I bought Cascade and it ruined all my glasses -- they were all spotted and had a cloudy film. I never could get rid of it and ended up buying new glasses.

I have also stopped using Cascade--because of the spotting.

I now use (and really like) the Electrosol tablets with the "power ball" on it. The dishes come out nice, and no more spots :)

I am not so concerned about the spot although a pain. The residue and CC is a concern on the spotty items. Hubby is not gluten free. Can gluteny cuddies rest in the spotty glasses? I don't know what the heat content of the machine. Or, is this a concern taken over the limits. :blink:

So, that's what happened to my glasses. I bought Cascade only once, years ago, and I just made the connection now. I couldn't figure it out. My glasses were clear and then they were cloudy.

Thanks for figuring out my mystery.

I have been using Cascade as well and my dishes have not been turning out well. I thought it was Florida water. I'm going to try another brand and see what happens.

Our dishwasher is not good and my husband eats gluten. When he puts stuff in the dishwasher he never rinses it off and shoves stuff everywhere. I don't get sick at home and I'm very sensitive, so I would say that even if it doesn't do the best job, it is good enough to get the gluten off.

Are you getting sick at home?

I had this very question because of this very detergent!

These posts are old, and so the information should be re-checked, but...

I've since changed to Cascade dual action tablets and am much more satisfied with the appearance, and since I have no more spots I was able to stop wondering what's in those spots!

Lisa,

I understand your concern--the same thought crossed my mind back when it was happening to me.

It does stand to reason that if the water isn't completely sheeting off the dishes/glasses, then possibly it is leaving something other than water spotting behind. I honestly don't know.

I tend to err on the side of caution, so I simply switched brands. I was not noticing that I was getting "mystery glutenings", so I did finish up what I had before switching. If you're not feeling well and can't figure out why, then I'd say switch brands and see if it makes any difference. :)

I tried using Lime Away on my glasses and silverware that were cloudy and it really worked. We soaked the silverware in it and then put it in the dishwasher and it is sparkling like new. We also did all the glasses and they look perfect.

Just an idea for anyone else with streaky dishes.

The water spots and film are salt deposits (not NaCl salt exclusively, of course, but the salts found in your water supply, all the more so if you have a water softener). A descaler - even just vinegar - can help get that off.

Oddly, I've never had any luck with the theory that you don't need to pre-rinse dishes before putting them in the dishwasher, so I don't know if the reason I don't have huge problems with this is because dishes go in clean-ish, but I've had it happen too, without Cascade.

seventh generation makes a nice biodegradable detergent that is save for the environment. I find it works great.

Dear jerseyangel and Carla,

Our dishes are having the same problem! I wondered what was causing that. It is disgusting! I am going to see if we can switch to Electrosol. That powerball is safe! Good, I will get some this week and see if it makes a difference!

Sincerely,

Since changing to electrosol with the power ball, I have not had any problems with spotting on my dishes and my dishes are clean when they come out of the dishwasher.

I love electrosol.

      Rectal pain

      When I have had what I think are episodes of this (I've never had a formal diagnosis for PF) it seems to be triggered by bloating caused by something I've eaten - a friend had an episode of this after eating too many apples, for me corn and rice cakes seemed to give me IBS and trigger this. I am not a medical person but it seemed like the extra pressure...

      Guinness, can you drink it?

      At a family wedding in Italy last year I was drinking gluten free Peroni which was fine for me. From the Daura Damn website ... " Our guarantee less than 3ppm: each batch is analyzed and certified by the CSIC using the R5 Competitive ELISA test before hitting the market. This way, we ensure that its gluten content is always below 3ppm "

      Hi jmartes, I brought up doTerra's website and see that they do have many supplements, offer support and help. And using their organic products has been helpful. and yet you are not able to work enough to support yourself when, if you were healtht, you could work for another 20 years. It does not seem that they offer a program to follow and instead...

      Gluten free nuts

      Thank you for all the excellent information. I moved from Wyoming to California. May be its where I am located but So far none of the Costco Kirkland brand I have looked at is labeled gluten free. Same with the Sam's Members Mark. The Kirkland nuts you mention all say they are processed in a plant that processes wheat. I am going to keep checking. Thank...

      When I have had what I think are episodes of this (I've never had a formal diagnosis for PF) it seems to be triggered by bloating caused by something I've eaten - a friend had an episode of this after eating too many apples, for me corn and rice cakes seemed to give me IBS and trigger this.  I am not a medical person but it seemed like the extra pressure down there perhaps added pressure to already sensitised pelvic and rectal muscles. Coeliacs can suffer from bloating when they are first diagnosed due to the inability to digest food properly.  Lactose for me caused a lot of bloating and when I came off it temporarily after diagnosis it helped reduce bloating.  Iron supplements and the timing of taking them also caused discomfort and I had to experiment a bit with type and timing before my gut felt comfortable.   Maybe something to think about?   Some coeliacs suffer from constipation - again, just a thought, but perhaps if you had issues with that it might be a contributor.

      Hi jmartes, I brought up doTerra's website and see that they do have many supplements, offer  support and help. And using their organic products has been helpful. and yet you are not able to work enough to support yourself when, if you were healtht, you could work for another 20 years. It does not seem that they offer a program to follow and instead are offering supplements for your symptoms. This has helped you but you are not able to work very much.  The Programs I have seen  online usually have 3 parts. The first is a Parasite cleanse. The 2nd is the Kidney cleanse and the  3rd is a Liver cleanse and gallbladder cleanse. You need to doall these cleanses to have your whole body functioning well. I can only reccommend the program I gave you because that is the one I used and still do. (drclark.net)  When I see a newprovider and tell I have Celiacs and they look skeptical I tell them that when I am gluttoned the reaction happens 8 or more hours later with intestinal painful cramping followed by diarrhea. Providers are willing to accept tha I probably have Celiacs and are more likely order tests such as vitamin levels. Is this what happens if you eat only a small amount of Gluten? You mentioned going to Mayors. 20 years ago many Dr.s wanted to include a celiac screening as a standard test so that more people eould diagnosed and not become disabled. It did not happen but the Federal levgislature did pass a law so that Celiacs could claim deductions for the gluten free food they bought. What were you going to ask the Mayors to do?
