You're going to go to cast iron hell for this

That's enamel. It'll survive once or twice.

Not before I take this steel wool scour pad to a fully seasoned Field Company cast iron skillet that was soaked OVERNIGHT in vinegar water and then complain how dirty it was.
My Mother in Law literally did this. She ultimately bought me a new one.

Cast iron should be buried in the garden where it can decompose naturally.

I never put plastic in the dishwasher even if it says it’s dishwasher safe. Like so many tupperware I own have warped over time even if it says it’s safe in the dishwasher and microwave. Also I like to reduce my micro plastic intake.

Does your washer use a "heat dry" cycle at the end? Ive been putting in plastic lids on top and bottom racks but shutting off the heat dry setting for years and nothing's warped, I think that's the major culprit
-
Don't own plastic, problem solved
-
I did until I had kids. Then I got tired of cleaning up broken glass at the worst times.

Survival of the fittest.
Yes, 2/3 of the wooden cutting boards I put in became unusable after a few washes or so.
But totally worth it finding that remaining 1/3 of tough ones that are now making life sooo much easier.

Not sure I follow. Someone care to fill me in?

American dishwashers run very hot and use harsh detergents. Some dishes and cookware will state on their packing or even on themselves that they are not dishwasher safe.
Despite this, the sheer convenience of the dishwasher will make people ignore the warnings, and the objects retain their basic functionality just often enough that the meme can be an open-ended YOLO-like joke, phrased like parental encouragement, instead of merely mocking people who try it.

How rude of them. I will use european dishwashers now and my dishes that aren't dishwasher safe will be better than ever.

Unless it's some weak-ass plastic, "not dishwasher safe" usually means that certain parts of the item may experience cosmetic damage, and the company got tired of fielding complaints about that.
-
This is a very clear and comprehensive run down.

Dishwasher safe usually means that the plastic is safe for up to boiling water temperature. You can alter the chemistry of plastics so that you end up with microplastics in your food if you go above certain temps with most plastics.
Dishwashers have different cycles but they also have a "sanitation" cycle often which runs the water at boiling temps to kill bacteria to make it "food grade safe".
Also the cast iron is there to fuck with the cast iron cult since you're not supposed to wash them thoroughly but instead keep a small coating of whatever was there that makes it non-stick. You can watch "How to season a cast iron" to get the gist of it.

"Dishwasher safe" only means the plastic itself won't warp or disintegrate at consumer dishwasher temps. This is not the same as microwave safe, which means it won't warp or disintegrate at boiling/steam temps.
All of the studies I've seen have proven that all food/dishwasher "safe" plastics release millions of particles every cycle. All plastics basically release microplastics at all times, but the amount rapidly increases at anything above room temp.
Most consumer dishwashers don't go higher than 65-75c on any cycle (read the fucking manual). They clean by washing food away, not sanitization; including their self cleaning cycles.
"Food grade" has nothing to do with boiling point. Chicken is safe to eat at 75c. The min temp to prevent harmful bacteria growth of cooked food is 60c. Most of the salad you've ever eaten grew out of shit and has never seen temps above 30c, post harvest.

If you think that's going to save you look harder, or just go back to ceramics like sane people. Your vasty majority is likely coming from textiles and tires, in the water and air respectively.

I hate dishwashers. They use more water and time than hand washing, and don't even do a good job cleaning them.
-
Dishwasher use less water and energy (for heating) than hand washing does 🥰
if your dishes aren't clean then try putting dishwasher powder in the machine as well as in the small door for it.
if you want a deep dive then I highly recommend "technology connections" a youtube channel which has a longer video on dishwashers (and some tips on how to best use it)
-
Dishwashers use less water than hand washing. Perhaps you were imagining that the entire dishwasher fills up with water like a clothes washer does?
-
Or they put only 1 dish at time XD
-
-
That's not true, generally it uses less water.
If it doesn't clean your dishes properly, you're not using your dishwasher properly, remember to clean your sieve regularly.
-
don’t even do a good job cleaning them.
yeah, if they're shitty ones

This is a Bosch. It will probably be ok. They're in a good neighborhood.
