1- Hand Towels: While they may not appear dirty, research funded by the USDA found that kitchen tea towels are among the most contaminated items in the kitchen.

According to Carolyn Forte, director of the Good Housekeeping Institute’s Cleaning Lab, these towels need to be changed every other day or even daily, especially if you have a large family.
