The mechanical action of water running and wiping is what takes out 90% of germs and bacteria already. Soap is only responsible for that next 9%.

There's still 1% unless you autoclave it.

Tldr: You probably don't need soap for dishes if you wash them during initial rinse immediately after use and they aren't super gross.

You still want to wash and soap your hands cause 10% of cold germs is plenty.

Also quit licking your fingers to open the plastic bags for produce at the store you filthy fucks.

I mean that only seems like it'd be true if oil isn't involved, since running water over something coated with oil seems like it'd do pretty much nothing

Through the power of not letting the oil set, and using a rag or brush with warm to hot water, you will be surprised just how little to no soap you need at all.

Fwiw I'm not cleaning greasy ass pans regularly either. We're too poor for that lol.
