Good, inexpensive silicone kitchen sink strainer

I like almost everything OXO makes. This OXO Good Grips Silicone Sink Strainer ([amazon_link asins='B000U0K5PU' template='PriceLink' store='boingboing' marketplace='US' link_id='d90e7004-c8f0-4fdc-8075-ed133b8ad799'] on Amazon) was a welcome replacement for the wire mesh one we had, because some of the wires had broken. Those little protruding wires hurt when they poke your finger. The OXO strainer is made of soft silicone and that won't hurt you. To clean the collect food debris, just pop the cup inside out in the trash. One reviewer on Amazon said it is still in good condition after four years of use. I've had mine since 2016 and it is working perfectly.
