There are so many household hacks just waiting to be discovered.

If you’ve ever wondered how to make your silverware shinier, our latest obsession is for you.

All you need is a dishwasher tablet and aluminum foil.

In the beginning, she flashes a dull-looking, scratched-up spoon in front of the camera.

She runs her dishes through a dishwasher cycle as usual and removes the spoons.

After washing, the spoons are extra shiny, and the scratches are no longer visible.

In fact, the spoons look brand new.

A virtual miracle has occurred!

Why Does It Work?

Aluminum foil doesn’t perform its magic on its own.

Dishwasher tablets have similar properties tobaking soda.

The combination of baking soda and aluminum foil lifts silver sulfide, otherwise known as tarnish.

The process works even better when combined with warm water.

So, should you put a ball of aluminum foil in your dishwasher?

Sure, why not?

Especially if you like sparkling clean silverware.
