Most people don't like scooping bits of crud and various foodstuffs,

Why would you do that? Scrape leftovers off the plates straight into
the can. Dump the cutting board straight into the can too. Why create
the extra operation of moving the waste foodstuffs to the sink and
then scooping them into the can?


Are you supposed to wash your dishes in the garbage can? Are you
supposed to wash off food and meat in a garbage can? I don't think
so.

You do food prep where there is running water. That place is the
sink, not the garbage can.



A lot of people have slide out garbage cans in the cabinet right under
the sink. Me, I have a trash compactor in the cabinet on the right side
of the sink cabinet. Scrape the dishes in the compactor and then put the
dishes in the dishwasher, or wash them by hand.
I used to get the compactor bags that were pretty expensive, but for the
last year or so, I have been using the Glad Force Flex tall kitchen bags
in it. Never had a puncture yet, but I don't throw glass in it since we
have a recycle pickup where I live.
