Deodorize your freezer

By mudlark • January 5th, 2008

Does your freezer ever get to smelling like a science project gone wrong? There’s a simple solution! Dab some pure vanilla extract on a cotton pad (you know, like you get in the supermarket make-up aisle) and wipe down the walls and base of your freezer. Of course, it helps to remove any food that might be contributing to the odor, and clean any leftover spills first. But vanilla does the trick! Quick and easy.

For your fridge, white vinegar works best, and of course we all know the benefits of an open container of baking soda to keep odors at bay.
