I did not mean to drink from it and had I known beforehand I would not have done... But I took a few sips and then realised that the glass smelt just like damp dog. It was horrible, I could not even bear to have it near me. Apparently it had come out of the dishwasher and that was just the "dishwasher smell", but I am not convinced! I asked for a new glass, but could still not bring myself to drink it! Surely that can not be a good thing? Does it mean the dishwasher needs cleaning and is now contaminating everything? Will I get sick from it? Eurgh!

Sorry for the panic post and sounding a bit like a mental person, but that first thing that springs to mind when something does not smell right is "Oh no, its contaminated, it is going to make me ill!"

Can someone reassure me that I will be fine and the dishwasher just needs a clean?
