The original quote was “cleaning your counters more than once a day”, no?
So cleaning them before food prep, then cleaning up after, that’s twice. So right there, you’re agreeing that you clean them more than once a day.
I didn’t read op’s comment as “You have to constantly wipe your counters”. Instead, I just saw it as a fairly common statement that your counters and food prep surfaces should be cleaned before and after use anyway, so why does it matter if there’s a cat on them in between usage? You’re going to clean it before you use it anyway.
I agree with you, this shouldn’t be (and I don’t think it is) controversial. I think it’s just an easy misunderstanding.
But you clean it before you prep food on it, right? And then, when you’re done, you wipe it down?
So where’s the issue?
Obviously, yes. And further on weekends. Why is this controversial, tho?
I don’t re-clean my already clean kitchen when I’m not using it. It tends to stay clean til next time?
I eat one meal a day, typically at the end of the day. I clean before and after. Do you do this differently?
I think maybe the point is getting lost.
