6 Alternate Uses for Your Freezer

Ok update...if you freeze the popcorn then take it out for 30 mins and then pop it , it will pop almost completely

The popcorn thing did not work =( ! It completely ruined the popcorn.

Something smells fishy.

Store your grass seed. It tricks it in to sprouting quickly! Why, I can't remember, but it works!

to remove sneaker oder from your sneaker, place the sneaker in a zip lock bag and freeze the sneakers overnight, freezing them kills the bacteria that causes the odor.

You guys are funny:)

i love popcorn...think i"ll fix me some...

Thank you Diana, I agree with you about the negative-nellies. Its possible to post that you disagree with the article without being so angry and unpleasant. It would be different if we were talking about something important like religion or politics but all we're talking about here is using a freezer-no need to get all high strung and hostile.

While in the Yahoo employee break room
-Hurry quick we gotta come up with something for Yahoo News!!!!!
-Quick!...put stuff in the freezer!

when i get a food smelly plastic container i simply add a few drops bleach with dish detergent ,leave as long as i want or just a couple minutes and any smell is gone.even zip-lock bags or others if i want to re-use them.as for dirty pots,also soack after boiling with hot soapy water,and dirt is easily removed. for pocorn a i'm not that frugal.

Your nuts are going in freezer to save them from getting rencid!!! along with butter products ... and anyhow they need a box of baking soda to keep the air fresh!!!

To Olddoglover, when you "remarried" your husband? Sounds like an interesting story there. LOL

Good point DaveC!

You should not put coffee grounds in the freezer. Only whole coffee beans should be frozen. Then just grind what you will need for the next few days and it will always be fresh. Unperked coffee grounds are good for removing odors from the fridge too.

I don't know about some of these things in the article........haven't tried them and probably won't, but other readers of the article that are trying to be helpful have some good ideas.

Others are wasting their time and ours by posting trash and negative comments. Keep it real folks.

What about a turd? does it remove the smell off that?

Seeing is believing. Unless I try out I can't possibly make any comments

The candle tip is pure BS, and so is pretty much everything else... total fail.

i agree with bmm, after losing a bunch of flour to weevils, ive gotten in the habit of freezing all my flour overnight before putting in an airtight container.

also, freezing wool yarn or a wool project will kill any moths before putting into storage.

"Bull. I heard that popcorn in the freezer thing 25 years ago and it doesn't work. I am Mr. Popcormn and have eaten many thousands of p[ounds of the "popped wonder" and I am here to tell you what this article says has no merit."

You must be a fat a**

probably not...actually,popcorn is a lower calorie snack than some out there....

Leaving popcorn kernels in the freezer draws the moisture out of them.
