All things I love to eat together, but vinegar is also a basic cleaning staple in my kitchen. And now I have another amazing thing to add to my current use.
I have used if for what seems like forever as a microwave cleaner.
Just put half a cup in a microwave safe dish, heat for about a minute and leave it hot and steaming closed up for a few minutes. I usually leave it and forget about it, but come back after loading the dishwasher.
Then take a regular old cloth, paper towel, sponge...
and I don't care how disgusting your Micro is, the stuff just wipes out.
NOW for the newest use.
I made a volcano in my garbage disposal. equal parts vinegar and baking soda. Put the baking soda in first, then the vinegar, and plug the hole. IF YOU DON"T HAVE A PLUG DON"T DO THIS.
This is a natural pipe cleaner, and the combination is considered caustic when mixed.
Leave it for about a half hour.
Then rinse the drain with hot water.
You can use it in the Bath, the laundry sink, just be sure you can plug the pipe. You don't want a volcano in your tub, but in your pipes.
It cleaned out the line to my dishwasher, which I couldn't really access, and it smelled BAD, but for the first time in about a year, I haven't had water backing up into the counter top air vent, and spill all over the counter and the floor.
THIS WAS AWESOME.
