But there is a reusable alternative that can help you sop up the occasional spill: Swedish dishcloths. These ridged, sponge-like sheets are less expensive and more sustainable than paper towels—if you use them long enough. To find the best ones, we tested seven Swedish dishcloths. We doused them in ketchup, and poured water on them—tablespoon by tablespoon—to test absorbency. And we washed them repeatedly to confirm that they could withstand wear and tear.
