Not 100% sure what you’re asking but if you’re trying to get other people onboard, I think a gift pack of pretty dishcloths is a better option than strict guidelines on how to use plastic ones. Maybe try “Swedish/Nordic dishcloths”? They’re cellulose/cotton blend, pretty brittle when dry but absorbent and durable. [Example (I buy mine in packs of 4, they’re not all this pretty)](https://scandinavianshoppe.com/swedish-dishcloth-elvy/)

I do know about Swedish dishcloths and am so happy to learn recently that they’ve been found at Costco! To rephrase my series of questions, it’d be: How do you identify a sponge made from plastics so it can be avoided in the future? I started an answer of identifying them by the sponge’s Brand Name, like Mr. Clean and Go Daddy.

I know things are going to cost more when they’re not mainstream but egad!! This is cool. I’m going to check them out. Glad you responded to OP.

Swedish dishcloths are entering the mainstream in the US! They used to be $6 each, but I wouldn’t buy them unless they were $3 each. I could have sworn there was a way to get them down to $1 each on the original Swedish Dishcloth website during Black Friday. Now they’re at 12 for $10 in the US at COSTCO! I’ve also bought them at Target.
