Trader Joe's Kitchen Cloth

Here is an unusual product from Trader Joe’s that we have been using for a few months. We have so enjoyed this product that we wanted to let you know about it.

Full name: Trader Joe’s Super Amazing Reusable Kitchen Cloth.

The package says that it replaces paper towels, is super absorbent, washable and durable. Well, the package is right.  You can feel good about going green and not tossing away lots of paper towels, and best of all, you will LOVE how these towels work in your kitchen. (Much better than paper towels any day…)

Each package contains two kitchen cloths that are a bit larger than a standard size piece of paper.  They also come in FUN colors and each package is a little different. You can hunt through all the packages on the shelf and find a combination of wild colors that suite your kitchen.

Replace Paper Towels– No Way!  We have used this item in our kitchen instead of reaching for a paper towel to clean counters, wipe up many spills and clean around the stove (especially good after an oatmeal boil-over). The nice thing is that you can squeeze out the excess water, and give this towel a mini-rinse between projects and it will still absorb up liquids, even if it is damp.

Like I said, we frequently give this towel a mini wash in the sink while we are using it, (especially if I have just wiped up something foodie- like tomato seeds and juice off my cutting board) But it also has made many a trip through the washing machine with other kitchen items and still works beautifully wash after wash.

[Note: we still use paper towels when we need to wipe up spills from raw meat items-eeks!]

Beyond the kitchen, Trader Joe’s Super Amazing Reusable Kitchen Cloth works magic in other rooms as well. We bought two packages, and use the “bright” colors for the kitchen and the “darker” colors for other rooms. For example, If you get it damp (OK get it wet and then squeeze all extra moisture out of it) it picks up dust like no other! (Sorry Swiffer…)

Trader Joe’s Super Amazing Reusable Kitchen Cloth is also fantastic for cleaning a floor. We just swish the cloth in our cleaning bucket and wring out so the cloth is damp and just attack the kitchen floor.  It is just fantastic on linoleum floors. (We do not have tile floors so I can’t tell you how it works on tile, sorry). It seems to attract those dust bunnies like a magnet!

So save some $$, and stop tossing away all those paper towels and give Trader Joe’s Super Amazing Reusable Kitchen Cloth a try. You will be glad you did.

Our tiny apartment kitchen has this fun metal rack under the cabinets, where we like to hang up our Trader Joe’s Super Amazing Kitchen Cloth to dry between uses. It is actually closer to us, the sink and all the cooking action than the paper towel dispenser.
