Tip - Removing Common Food & Drink Stains From Clothing : Recipes and Cooking : Food Network

The first step in any stain-fighting strategy is to act as soon as possible. Nonwashable clothing should be taken to a dry cleaner immediately. The next few steps depend on the stain and fabric being treated, but luckily, most common food stains can be treated with items likely to be found at home. And the last step? Do not dry the fabric until the stain is gone—a hot spin will usually set the stain.
