Chia Seeds - clogging my dishwasher

I used to have greek yoghurt with protein powder and bran buds every morning to make sure I had enough fiber. Someone told me about chia seeds so I have that with my protein yoghurt.

however... the leftover seeds in my containers clog up my dishwasher and get all over my other dishes.

Is this normal or is this just me? Currently I am hand washing my yoghurt containers but even then the chia seeds absorb the water and stick to my dish cloth.

(I know - just a petty little concern but I can't be the only person with this problem.)

I avoid that problem by using a paper coffee cup when I put chia seeds and ground flax seeds in my morning oatmeal.  When I'm done, I throw it away -- and I don't feel guilty because you can recycle paper.enlightened
