I fully understand the exchange students’ confusion. There’s nothing on the label that says or indicates it’s a cleaner, and that’s a plausible beverage container design.
Oh that is, I also thought that was a drink, what the fuck?
Not gonna lie, from the thumbnail I thought it was a fruity drink too…
Even when looking at the picture, I still don’t know what it is. I’m assuming soap based on the comments, but it’s not obvious at all.
This is why people need consumer regulation. Bottles have one shape and soaps another
To me it seriously looks absolutely like fruit juice that has baking soda in it for some reason I’m not aware of - maybe health benefits? And if it didn’t mention baking soda I would totally expect it to be fruit juice. But apparently it’s a household cleaner, and there’s also a watermelon version. WTF is wrong with the people who make this shit?
is this the soda you drink while baking food?
I have drank such an appetizer and I must say I do not understand what the fuss is all about. It is literally the thing you add to cake - “BAKING soda”. You eat the cake and so you eat the baking soda that was added to it to make it BAKE. There is nothing remotely unhealthy about eating things meant for consumption.
There is nothing remotely unhealthy about eating things meant for consumption.
Alright. A as table salt is very much meant for consumption and present in pretty much every food there is, you wouldn’t mind backing up your statement by showing me how you eat a few large spoonfuls, since there’s “nothing remotely unhealthy” about it, right?
I don’t believe anyone that stupid could even find themselves to Lemmy so obvious ragebait is obvious ragebait, I just wish they’d be even a little better
I not only eat salt but I even bathe in it. I have recently bought “bathing salts”. It is a special salt that not only can be added to meals but also it has second purpose as a relaxing bath additive.
Haters are going to hate me about the baking soda but I am fine and I felt zero negative effects. I don’t know what’s the fuss about eating a little extra of something that was already in your dessert anyway.
My brother says it is actually good for you and replenishes soda in your blood.
Are you twelve or schizphrenic? Because whatever you has which makes you think you’re being funny is lying to you.
You can’t eat a tablespoon of salt. You’re not capable of doing that. End of story.
I don’t know why you think I am joking, I have just said you everything I know about salts and their uses. Tablespoon for me is usually not enough to get through the working day anyway. I find that some bathing salt acts like coffee for me except a bit longer effect and I quite enjoy it.
Fabulous isn’t a drink. It’s a multi-purpose cleaner that you absolutely should not drink.
What the fuck is a snickerdoodle
A sugar cookie that’s been to college. Should be chewy and cinnamon flavored.
Never had one? It’s a somewhat common cookie variety that’s similar to a sugar cookie and has a cinnamon sugar topping.
No, is it an American thing? Sounds nice though.
It’s covered in sugar and made with a bunch of sugar. Of course it’s American!
Anyway, here’s a decent recipe if anyone wants to know what they look like or wants to make them.
They are my favorite cookie when warm, and like my 6th favorite cookie cold…
If they’re not great when cold, it’s possible that the ones you’re eating are overcooked. They’re godly when perfectly cooked.
… That happened.
Nothing Ever Happens.
Time to pick up some Mr. Yuck stickers.
I’m Canadian and English is my first language. If I didn’t see that product in a cleaning products isle at the store, I would be very confused because it looks like a drink and while baking soda is something to clean with, it is also something to bake with. It should at very least have the words cleaner or detergent in equally large lettering on the front label.
Since when is baking soda a liquid?
Ever since NaHCO3 + H2O <=> Na(+) + HCO3(-) + H2O
I mean, that was my first question when I saw the product.
First it’s liquid dish soap, then it’s liquid laundry detergent, now liquid baking soda?! What lengths the American trucking industry will go to get customers to pay to haul water across the fucking country!
Bottled water lengths
never mind that, why would you have baking soda in bottles???
It’s a tiny package of white powder. What is this insanity?
It’s a cleaning product with baking soda in it, not actual baking soda for cooking

Well, in my defense, i can’t read anything on that picture that tells me it’s supposed to be floor cleaner.
Also: Snickerdoodle? Le Fuque?I’m with you Everything about this packaging screams “DRINK ME!”
Down the rabbit hole we go where it stops no one knows! (Probably getting a stomach pump though)
It’s both unecological and uneconomical, for the sole benefit of not having to mix powder with tap water.
Fabuloso is a cleaning product.
It isn’t just tap water.
It’s a cleaning product which also has baking soda added to it, it’s a marketing gimmick but adding baking soda to a prepackaged cleaning product isn’t exactly crazy.
I thought baking soda was potentially useful when you made a paste with it, not when you added a tea spoon to a cubic metre of liquid.
It’s great when used as an abrasive but it has odor fighting capabilities without being a paste.
Oh, ok. Good to know.
Throw some in your laundry and it will help remove stank too.
ESPECIALLY if you accidentally forget to dry your clothes and then they get that “been sitting in the washing machine too long” funk that doesn’t like to come out in a single re-wash …
ask me how I know
If not drink, why drink shaped?
(seriously, what even is it?)
floor soap
“baking soda”
I’m even more confused now
It said with baking soda. Baking soda can do a lot for cleaning.
Its just funny and a bit concerning that nowhere on the label does it explicitly say that it’s a cleaning product. I wonder if there is a version without baking soda, that would be even more confusing.
Yeah but it does have usage directions on the back.
In almost all cases it just adjusts pH, except when it’s still a powder, then it’s an abrasive, and any time you get it bubbling, it’s reducing its value to zero by turning into water and Co2.
… oooh I just noticed the floor tiles on the label, under all the food.
Fabuloso is the best for floors. Smells so good too - good enough that you want to drink it.
If you go to any grocery store in predominately Latine area, it’s pretty common. Lots of old ladies swear by it.
I don’t live in a predominantly latine area and we have it in Walmart
Ngl but this is my first time seeing baking soda in liquid form. Maybe I need to touch some grass.
Or maybe you just don’t come from the US? It is not a thing where I live at all.
I don’t know this brand and ngl if I saw that on a kitchen table there is a pretty good chance I’d drink it too. That is downright irresponsible label design.
Say you don’t live in the western United States without saying it lol
I know it will come as a surprise to you, but by far the majority of people on the internet does not come from there. They don’t even come from the United States at all, western or not.
Your point is?
Being one of those ppl who think the internet is made of USA citizen
Most people in the world don’t
Do you not think we have fabuloso on the east coast or?
Like and share if you arent a twice-divorced 55 year old orthodontist with a big heart, no attention span, four kids: two humans, two dogs, and a serious addiction to wakeboarding and crystal meth.
Right off a cliff at the end there
To be fair, it does look tasty as fuck.
