Kitchen myths debunked - I am now removing my freezer's baking soda box

Armandhammer We've all heard various kichen myths over the years, regardless of how much time you choose to spend en la cocina. 

Screaming lobsters, cooking thickening agents, aluminum foil and Alzheimers - sometimes I just take these things for granted as kitchen factuals (yes I know that's not a noun).... but this Kitchen Myth page may change your mind.

Particularly mind-blowing -- baking soda does not work very well to absorb odors!!  EEK!!??!!  Mad props to Arm & Hammer's marketing division, ya' really got us all on that one.... (found via NotMartha)

If you are feeling disillusioned about your life, now that you know the sad baking soda truth, take heart by reading this great page full of what baking soda really CAN do for you and your home (with the stinky fridge).
