Who ever thought that was a good idea.
About as smart as one-ply toilet paper.

Two ply, ya got the pad

We had carpet in half of our kitchen when I was growing up. I got a missing toothpick stuck in my foot one night. Completely submerged it, half of it broke off and formed a sis in the arch of my foot. Dang that was painful

Never had carpet in the kitchen but had it on the ceiling in the bathroom.

I am not sure I want to know the rest of that story

Yep...I'm waiting for the punchline!

Well the hospital I used to work for had, and still has , carpet in many of its exam rooms so...

When I was a kid my Grandma’s house had a large room that had carpet on the walls.

A grease magnet

No different than shag carpet in the bathroom.

Carpet should only be in the Bedrooms. I love Hard wood Floors and TILE in the Kitchen and Bathrooms. Now is that so hard to remember???

my grandmother had it in the kitchen , the basement and the first few feet in each door was it for non carpet.

she never poured anything not over the sink and cleaned carpet a lot I guess

we have a rug in the living room that is it

Mom and dad had carpet in every room except kitchen and half bathroom. They had carpet in the big bathroom and what they said was they didn’t like cold feet in the winter, they both grew up during the depression years.

I generally keep an old towel on the kitchen floor to wipe up spills with my foot.

Carpet is not good in front of an entry door or in front of the sink and stove.

My technique as well.

our retirement house has no!!!! carpet, just a few rugs

Not a single carpet or rug at this house anymore....looks nice when new but collects all manner of sand, dirt, stains, mold and odors. You can vacuum everyday and have them cleaned but in the end you tear them out and can't believe the trapped gunk....I can't even imagine a carpet in a kitchen or bathroom.....

It had been remodeled in the 70's so what would you expect?
