When pots and pans in the kitchen are damaged, you should dispose of them immediately no matter how difficult your financial situation may be. Kitchen utensils are often made from ceramic, glass, or plastic, and they can deteriorate over time. Using damaged pots and pans can create a shabby feeling, symbolizing poverty and financial loss. In the past, only very poor people or beggars would use broken dishes. Nowadays, with improved living conditions, keeping damaged dishes is unnecessary. Especially if you have young children, your dishes and utensils need to be in good condition for safety reasons. Broken items might not be properly sanitized, leading to bacterial growth that could affect health. If left unattended, damaged kitchenware can accumulate dust and waste, increasing discomfort.
