There are many ways to save. We evaluate the usefulness and effectiveness of the most unusual and common methods found online.
Using Rancid Millet as Cat Litter
This is one of the strangest tips you can find online.
– A completely impractical idea, – noted Lyudmila VANINA, Deputy Director for Research at the All-Russian Research Institute of Grain and Processing Products. – Firstly, such a product does not accumulate in significant quantities at home. Secondly, such grains contain harmful oxidized fats. Feeding birds with such grains can lead to their death, and it will not be beneficial for the health of cats either.
Making a Body Scrub from Stale Sugar and Ground Coffee
– This method can indeed be effective and safe for health, – said cosmetologist Alina DUBITSKAYA. – One teaspoon of sugar, two teaspoons of fatty oil (olive, coconut, or another) and a spoonful of coffee – and your remedy is ready. However, keep in mind that this scrub is not suitable for the face, as the solid particles can be aggressive. Don’t overdo it: 1-2 times a week will be quite enough.
Preparing a Meat Marinade from Spoiled Milk
Cooks confirm: lactic acid bacteria are excellent at tenderizing meat. The kebabs turn out magnificent! There are other recipes as well.
– From milk with a sour taste, you can make cottage cheese. You can bake pancakes or fritters based on expired kefir, – supported the housewives using these methods Grigory ROGOV, Deputy Director of the All-Russian Research Institute of Butter and Cheese Making. – However, not every dairy product that has lost its original qualities is suitable for use. If, in addition to acidity, the product has another foreign taste (bitter, rancid, musty), it is better to pour out such milk or kefir.
Cleaning Stainless Steel Dishes with Expired Mayonnaise
– It is impossible to clean dishes with such a remedy, – says Elena VOYCEKHOVICH, an employee of a cleaning company. – Among folk remedies for this purpose, baking soda, activated charcoal, lemon juice, or vinegar will work.
