See more » Some folks say soda, while others prefer pop. What do they call cola in your neck of the woods? * Pop -- Culturally * Southern Sweet Tea Weird Household Uses for Food * Weird Household Uses for Food PEANUT BUTTER We were so inspired by the peanut butter carpet cleaning tip* and the bonanza of baking soda uses, that we went digging through our kitchens to seek out other tasty multi-taskers. Read on to find out how milk and vinegar nix stains, butter can save your precious baubles, and corn starch gets you and your kids out of knotty problems. * The Peanut Butter Tip: To get gum out of a carpet, scrape up what you can, using an ice cub to stiffen it if necessary. Then rub a small glob of peanut butter into the fibers, and wipe up the whole mess with a cloth. To get rid of any left-behind PB, just dab it up with a mixture of 1 tsp of dishwashing liquid in 1 cup of lukewarm water. (Thanks to DIY Life for the tip!) Got a tip on a multi-tasking food?

Add a teaspoon of pepper to the wash before you add in your clothes and it will keep the colors from fading. Got a tip on a multi-tasking food?

Simmer 2 cups of milk, a 1/4 pound of sugar and 2 oz. of ground black pepper for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Pour the mixture into bowls and put them where the flies will be attracted to them and then drown. You can also place around the house. No more buzzzzzing at the windows.

A 2-liter bottle of soda will do the trick. Just pour it down to clobber the clog. Got a tip on a multi-tasking food?

Then splash with cool water, put on your makeup (or just some moisturizer -- this means you, too, guys!) and head to work! Got a tip on a multi-tasking food?

Next time, air-dry orange peels, which contain flammable oils that burn longer, and use those instead of the paper. The delicious smell is a bonus. Got a tip on a multi-tasking food?

Leave it on your face for 2 minutes and rinse with warm water. Then wash your face as normal. Use every day for a week and then cut back to 3 days a week and you should notice an improvement.
