 demonstrated the quick trick. "I saw a cleaning hack on TikTok that you can rid of any of this residue [in plastic containers] with just a little bit of soap, paper towel, and some warm water," he said. The TikToker showed viewers the grease-stained plastic container before washing it. He then added a small amount of dish soap and placed a folded paper towel inside. For his next step, Milo filled the container halfway with warm water. "I put it to the test and we're going to shake that up after we put the lid on it," he explained. After shaking the container, Milo removed the lid and emptied the water out of it. After taking out the paper towel and rinsing the container out, he showed his audience the end result. The plastic container looked as good as new with no more visible food stains. Milo shared his surprise in the caption of the clip where he wrote: "Genuinely didn't think this would work." TikTok users took to the comments section to share their thoughts on the hack. "Nice tip, thanks" wrote one impressed viewer. Another follower said: "This is essentially how a washing machine works, the soap traps the oil and the abrasion from the paper towel helps rub it off." Milo agreed with the comparison, replying: "It's like a mini washing machine essentially!" 3 The content creator placed dish soap and paper towel in the container before filling it with water Credit: TikTok/meals_with_milo 3 Milo showed viewers the plastic container as he rinsed it off Credit: TikTok/meals_with_milo){kind=link}
