use metal cutlery and breakable plates
i find that plastic dinnerware (or usually melamine) take longer to wash because it is harder to remove grease from them. so that means washing plastic also uses more soap & water to get the grease out. whereas china or stoneware are easier to clean because the grease doesn't cling to them as much.
i'm too lazy to do any research now, but would the love affair between plastic and grease have something to do with their similar origins?
oh, and is it not obvious that we don't have a dishwasher? even if we could find a small one, we can't justify using it unless we wanted to wait forever until it was actually full to do a load.
