Can an expert tell me how I should phrase :

When it comes to throwing out silverware, plates or glasses, my wife and I don't hesitate if it is chipped or rusty.

When it comes to silverware, plates or glasses, my wife and I throw them out if they are chipped or rusty.
  

Top answer

When it comes to silverware, plates or glasses, my wife and I throw them out if they are chipped or rusty. The whole thing is unnatural - none of the things you mention can get rusty, and silverware doesn't chip.
