Realistically, I prefer having a scrub daddy and a separate sponge. Cuz the scrub daddy’s plastic mesh lasts a long time and doesn’t trap food particles, but sponges trap food and get gross really quickly. I’ve found that I end up replacing a scrub mommy way more often than a scrub daddy, simply because the sponge side is gross. It feels wasteful, when I could simply have a separate sponge that I replace as needed.
