Fast Food Laundry
When I was a teenager and even in college, I spent time working fast food. Whether you work fast food, cook with grease, or have a loved one with grease-spattered laundry, there is nothing worse than trying to get the grease smell and feel out of those uniforms! While I don’t recommend this cocktail for everyday laundry uses, it is great as a once-in-a-while, PLEASE-get-that-smell-out option!
Laundry Cocktail
Mix together:
3/4 Cup detergent (like Wisk or Tide)
1/2 Cup vinegar
1/2 Cup ammmonia
Fill washer with water. Add cocktail and agitate for 30 seconds. Toss in clothing. Allow to soak for 10 minutes. Run cycle as usual.
If the ammonia smell is too over-powering, you may want to re-wash with just detergent. Either way, the grease will be gone!
