Simple bachelor trick — How to use your dishes without having to wash them
Nobody wants to wash dishes, but everybody keeps doing it anyway.
Well, not anymore. Not with this ingenious life hack…
Step 1: Grab your one (perennially clean, thanks to this trick) bowl and a plastic bag…
Step 2: Insert bowl into bag and food into bowl.
Step 3: Eat.
Step 4: Discard plastic bag.
Step 5: Voila!
Awesome. There are clearly no downsides to this strategy.

I like all the dirty dishes in the background of picture 5.
Killing the planet, one bowl of food at a time. How about just washing dishes like a man?
Hahaha that is what women are for! Now go make me a sandwich!
Man, you’d be hungry at my house. Told the husband you can have a homecooked meal or sex… Guess which won? Well, I guess we both do in this situations. :)
He took the meal right?
yawn. lamest comment ever.
How about NOT washing your dishes, like a man. Real men don’t have time to wash their dishes, nor do we mind eating in dirty dishes. More time to grunt and drink beer and do backflips. Speaking of which, hold my beer dudette!
Seb, the feminine form of dude is actually “dudine,” not “dudette.”
I think it’s a regionally based euphemism. I grew up listening to dudette in the 80′s in South Florida. The use of “ette” implies a French feminization, and we have many Haitians here. I think “ine” would be indicative of a Germanic origin. Perhaps you are from a predominantly German area?
I mean, I was gonna, but I decided to play videogames. With my left hand. While chopping down a tree in the backyard with my beard and ridding my property of a badger infestation with my right. Single-handedly. And I had lunch with Captain Planet afterwards, he’s cool with it.
Try eating steak with this…
You could also just eat the food straight from the can and save even more time and/or dirty dishes(pan, etc.) If it is cereal, cram handfuls into your mouth straight from the box and glug a portion of milk right from the carton, eliminating one of the worst dirty dishes of all, the Milk Sludge bowl.
There’s especially no downside if you have stock in Hefty or Ziploc. ;-)
What about the silverware?
That was my first thought.
It would make more sense to put the food into the bag, mash it up, snip a corner off the bag, and then squeeze the food into your mouth. You can dine like an astronaut!
The only downside is microwaving with the plastic and seeping your food with carcinogens.
That looks like a produce bag from the grocery store, which means it probably isn’t clean. Of course, you could wash the plastic bag first before using it, but then that would kind of defeat the purpose of avoiding soap and water.
Plate condoms.
Wow… I was excited when I saw the article, now I’m just a little disappointed… this is terrible. This is so anti-green and lazy it’s just pathetic. I mean, I’m no green nut, but this is a bit over the top, don’t you think?
Wow, what an energy-saver. Now he only has to wash the spoon. And the pot, and the glasses, and the coffee cups, and that gross bucket that’s under the sink with the trash can.
no downside? unless you want to eat with a knife or fork, or want to eat hot food… yup, no down sides at all if all you eat is cereal :-P
I love eating all those extra BPA’s. No downside at all!
No one mentioned just getting paper plates and plastic Bowles with plastic ware no washing dishes at all not even the big spoon that was used … Btw cling wrap would be better then a grocery bag just guessing
if you are gonna be this lazy please use paper products instead of plastic so they can at least be recycled or biodegrade. seriously where do you think all that plastic ends up, 90% of it is not recyclable and it is killing our planet.
What about the dishes you used to COOK your food?! If you’re going to come up with an idea like this – you probably want to think it through from the beginning to the end – not just the end. Stupid!
wow, i hope those bags are recyclable. otherwise you are hammering the nail in mother earths coffin, all so you wont have to wash the dishes. wow, thats lame and just pure laziness. watch the movie “Bag It”, and hopefully it will open your eyes to the problem of waste and inspire you to start living your life differently.
This is what the Chinese do at every hole-in-the-wall restaurant in the country. It’s nothing new. You should see them buying soup in plastic bags… seriously.
this is called life hacks :D
