  1. Consumer complaint - yellow dish detergent.
    I do not have the best eyesight. More than once I have grabbbed the
    detergent instead of vegetablle oil and put it on my food. Then I
    smell it and toss the whole meal. Why do they havr to make it yellow?
    I'd like to write a complaint but where to?
    I finally threw out the yellow stuff and no longer buy any of the
    yellow - they lose my sale. i still want to complain.

    Dish detergent is available in several different colors. Just buy green
    or red dish detergent or keep your detergent and cooking oil bottles
    away from each other.

    if i were you, i wouldn't complain. why show your stupidity
    to even more people?
    seriously, why buy yellow dishsoap in the first place, and
    second, why leave it where it might get mistaken for oil?
    i buy different colors of dishsoap, including yellow on rare
    occaision, but the working bottle is on the back of the sink
    (in an unlabelled bottle, no less), so even if i happened to
    have purchased yellow it wouldn't be confused with anything
    else in the kitchen... including the oils. vegetable oil stays
    in a cupboard (oils store best in the dark) & olive oil is
    decanted from it's big bottle in the basement (cool & dark) to
    a smaller (unlabelled) bottle on the counter by the stove.
    it's not rocket science to tell things apart. perhaps you need
    to clean off your counters so you can tell where things are.

    Can't you smell it BEFORE you squeeze it into your food?

    I smell a TROLL, and not really a good one.

    Is there an extra hole in the top of your sink? Go to home depot and buy
    a sink-mounted dish soap dispenser. If you don't have an extra hole,
    have a combination faucet-sprayer installed then use the hole where the
    sprayer was for the soap dispenser.

    I wouldn't bother to complain unless you wanted the entire consumer
    department to laugh at you.

    I too have added oil to dishes only to discover in horror it was dish
    detergent. To stop this reoccuring, I leave the detergent in it's
    original bottle which looks nothing like the clear plastic squeeze bottle
    I keep my cooking oil in.

    Has she told you about the time she washed her entire set
    of good dishes in Wesson Oil? She never mentions it but
    logically it has to occur at least as often as her using detergent
    to cook with.

    When she loads her deep fryer with detergent does it foam over
    when it hits the simmering point?

    Has she ever tried the detergent in a DeLonghi fryer with the
    rotating cooking chamber?

    When she washes her Teflon pans with oil do they become more
    or less slippery?

    Hi, what do you mean by TROLL ?

    Someone who cannot be serious, because what they are saying
    is so unbelievable.

  13. On of my neighbor's was learning how to cook (his wife had recently
    passed away). He was cooking frozen french fries and he put dish washing
    liquid in the pan instead of cooking oil.

    Even worse, I was on a cruise, and a man showed up at the dinner table
    with only one eyebrow. He used, what he thought was a tube of
    sunscreen, but it was his wife's depilatory. When his skin started to
    burn, he washed it off, but the eyebrows went with it.

    Ooowee... he must have really been retarded... not to have thought to
    shave off the other eyebrow, then no one would have noticed. And
    women add falsies with eyebrow pencil all the time

    No, foaming hash browns may have some comic appeal but are not to be
    considered edible at all.

    I knew a woman who didn't like the way a bottle of dishwashing liquid looked
    sitting by her kitchen sink. So she'd transfer it to a different bottle
    that held more appeal for her. My question was, why don't you just put it
    under the cabinet under the sink? She looked at me like I was crazy. Maybe
    I *am* crazy, but not so crazy that I'll transfer dish soap from one bottle
    to another! LOL

    I shop at Costco and bought a Gimongus bottle...too ackward for day by
    day use....I transfered a smaller amount to a empty heinz Ketchup
    transparent squeeze bottle, which by happenstance was beside a similar
    squeeze bottle of canola cooking oil.
