<<Women will use a soap to remove oil from their face, and then put on face moisturizers. What the hell?>>
Same reason you pour the oil out of the deep fat fryer and put in new occasionally. The oil on your face has dirt and stuff in it, because you’ve been wearing it around all day. You take off the oil AND dirt, and put some moisture back in if you need it.
I use my salad spinner all the time. Mine even has a brake!
And my kids love the green ketchup. Haven’t seen the purple, yet, but I’m sure the LittleKinseys will want that whenever they decide to market it in Baltimore.
I’m with you on the Caffeine-Free Diet Coke issue. Yes, water would be better than artifically sweetened and colored water.
I buy Caffeine-Free regular Coke, but I hate diet sodas.
Someone on the SDMB described how they used their salad spinner to get rinse water out of fine washables. Better than wringing.
We have and use a banana tree. But it is indeed a dilema when we get down to that last lone banana. It sits, forlorn, on the counter, next the emtpy and equally forlorn banana tree.
When I ran a correction center for women (and they had to /got to cook their own meals), I had a couple of requests for pig ears. (yes, they cooked and apparently ate them)
For years I thought that the salad spinner was a nonexistent parody product created for use in the great eighties comic strip Bloom County. It was only three weeks ago that I learned that the salad spinner a) existed and b) was actually useful. If you like oil-based dressings…
I was a soda addict until my doctor told me to lose weight. So once I started a diet, soda was right out. At first I said, “No way will I drink diet, it’s nasty. I’d rather have water.” And I did switch to water for a few months, and all was fine. But then I got to craving some soda, so I gave diet a try.
Lemme tell ya, if you haven’t had ANY soda in 3 months, diet tastes just fine.
So now I drink diet pepsi, diet sprite, and diet dew. But diet coke is still pretty gross.
But even now, I won’t touch Caffiene-free diet cola. At that point, what’s the point? It doesn’t even taste like real cola at all. At least diet still has some semblence of cola.
So in short: Diet, ok. Caffiene-free, ok. But both? yuck!
Oh, and I’m fairly certain that if I was a kid, green or purple ketchup would make me puke. Of course, I did love the red applesauce at Denny’s, so who knows?
