Since they took out the phosphates we have had to rinse off the dishes in the sink then run the dishwasher on the longest “pots and pans” setting instead of the normal setting. To save the environment, we now use several gallons of water pre-washing the dishes then the dish washer now runs about three times longer and probably also uses a lot more hot water.
But someone somewhere in the bowels of washington at the EPA is making their target goals.
You can buy the old Cascade from Restockit.com. The stuff with the phosphates is still available for purchase. You do have to buy it in bulk.
