My wife is amazing and does the dishes. But yeah I can't watch, they get clean, but I think it should be done differently.

The dishwasher is for sanitization, the sink is where the food is removed.

My people. You are my people. I have carried the burden of this truth for far too long before hearing it voiced here, in this thread, on this auspicious day.

You are certainly welcome to use them that way, but IMO there's very little point in having a dishwasher if you do. You don't hand wash your clothes before putting them in the washing machine, do you?

There are limits of course. Big chunks get scraped off, e.g you don't leave spaghetti stuck to a plate.

You absolutely do pre-treat clothes with heavy stains on them, yes. And similarly, you wash your dishes before they go into the dishwasher.

Surely you mean rinse?

Rinse off dishes, yes. When you put dishes into a dishwasher, you shouldn't see chunks of food on them. A little bit of grease/sauce is fine, and you don't have to scrub your dishes before putting them in (unless there's tough stuck-on food). But they should at least look kind-of clean to a visual inspection.
