I have a fairly new Frigidaire that I have had to take apart more than
once because fish bones or a piece of broken glass got past the screen.


I'd think that broken glass would come from glasses broken in the
dishwasher, not from anything on your plate? And bones get scraped into
the trash, of course... Sorry if I implied that you could put anything
into the dishwasher; only food that can be ground by the dishwasher is
safe, but that includes almost everything. No corncobs, no bones, no
peach pits.
