Baking Soda No More

We’ve been conditioned to believe that baking soda reduces and eliminates odors in the refrigerator. It doesn’t. At least not as well as activated charcoal. In addition to smelly cheese, activated charcoal purifies contaminated solutions and is administered as an antidote to certain ingested poisons. And this the same stuff used in water filters and fish aquariums. It’s safe and it works. Get it for cheap at your local fish store. Note : The best activated charcoal is made from coconut hulls though difficult to find.
