Because juice from raw meat, poultry or fish may contain bacteria, be sure that it doesn't drip on your hands or foods in your grocery cart.

Energy Tip
Dry full loads of laundry but avoid over-filling the dryer. If your washer and dryer are a matched pair, a full washer load will also be the right size for the dryer.
