what else can you use besides jet dry in your dishwasher?

being a dishwasher novice as of late, is there anything other than jet dry type stuff to use?   I read to use vinegar, BUT my d/w instructions (yes i read them shut it lol), said that vinegar in the d/w can F stuff up since it's acidic .    maybe it's a jet dry conspiracy? I dont know!  I tried using NOTHING but stuff comes out soaking wet and makes me cranky.  so, any advice?

    Do you not have a "dry" option on your washer?

    You can use vinegar on anything and for everything.

    I read the title and was going to say vinegar, but clearly that's a huge part of your post.  So I don't know.

    Also, and I don't know if you'd even be interested in this, but we now use 1 tbs borax and 1 tbs washing soda in place of dishwasher detergent due to it a) being safer (not toxic...dishwashing detergent is actually the cause of hundreds of child deaths each year believe it or not), b) being greener (you're probably rolling your eyes right now), and c) it's ridiuclously inexpensive.

    I don't use anything...I run my dw at night, and unload it in the morning, so most everything has dried by that point.

    I use vinegar all the time without problems.  I use it on everything...softener for laundry, cleaning carpet, general cleaning.  I love vinegar!
