How do I get red food stains off a white rubber spatula?!
Everytime I use my spatula with a red sauce it stains it so it's a lovely orange colour after washing!. It eventually wears off, but it makes the spatula look so grungy, I just wondered if anyone had a tip for cleaning it other than putting it in bleach which soaks into the rubber and comes out in the food (been there, done that)!. Ideas, anyone!?Www@FoodAQ@Com

Hey, I have some of the same issues in my restaurants!.!.!.and like the other answer!.!.!.just buy a new one!. I use a baggie/zip lock bag over my spatula with a rubber band so that I don't stain them when working with food coloring!. Try it and you'll never have to buy a new spatula agian!. You can always buy a spatula that is black, and you'll never see the grime, but still not safe! Adding chemicals will only strengthen your chances of getting it in your food! NOT SAFE! Good luckWww@FoodAQ@Com
So whats wrong with a discoloured spatula, if you are that concerned buy a silicone one that doesn't stain!. I like my utensils with a bit of "character"Www@FoodAQ@Com
Next time when you use it with the red sauce!.Try dipping the whole spatula in the sauce thus making the whole spatula red!.Voila! you got a new red spatula!.!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
