Scrub Daddy–where have you been?
I’m not sure what cave I’ve been living in, but I didn’t know about Scrub Daddy cleaning sponges! Much as I LOVE my stainless steel inner pots in my Instant Pot, let’s be honest–sometimes they are a pain to scrub. I can get them all shiny with SOS pads but they are messy and expensive…
