[img]tongue.gif[/img] I was expecting a chemical explanation. There are many types of molecules in food odours - why are those molecules attracted to the ones in baking soda? Give me the reaction equation for say, baking soda with cheese odour
Such equations helped me understand why soap dissolves in water back in the day

My step-dad has this Danish cheese that smells TERRIBLE. It's really foul. You can smell it through the fridge door, and worst of all, though we have a smell-proof box for it, the cheese is too large so we have to endure 3 weeks of waiting for the amount to vanish before it can go IN said smell-proof box. Ugh >_<.

there is a way to stop that from happening, get a peice of wax paper, make it long enough to cover the lid twice, and fold it in half, then place it over the jar, then put the lid bax on, it helps to seal it better

' o o The above equation is for soap and the so called baking soda mystery.

Yup, what they all said...it absorbs the odors if you leave it in the fridge. Sorry I can't corroborate Mack's equations ... LOL...what I know of chemistry you could fit on the head of the proverbial pin, so I can't give you that explanation, Vaskiekins!
All I know is I usually keep an open box of baking soda in the fridge and the freezer and it works!

Chorizo sausages...anything within 10 feet of it begins to stink to high heaven of meat.
The cure...there is not one, but there is one...you must consume it all upon breaking the seal, lest the foul odours that dwell within consume the very fabric of time! Whether you do this with the assistance of bread or cheese is optional. |

Good lord...
Pickles...in jars...chorizos hanging from the ceiling...such a place exists. The local kebab takeaway. THE DEVIL DWELLS WITHIN! WE'RE ALL DOOMED, DOOMED I TELLS YA! *cough* Keeping the smelly food products in question in air tight sacs is a sure fire way of ensuring that the evil is contained. |

Hell, I even took some pics of it! This is me being really pissed off. This is me ganging up with my friends to kill some overgrown pickles. This is me kicking some pickle ass!
