Fall Green Cleaning Tips and Tricks from Arm & Hammer (Giveaway)

In case you’re heading out apple picking or carving pumpkins, Arm & Hammer wanted to share some green tips to prep, clean, and cook your seasonal produce using one multi-tasking household staple - Arm & Hammer Baking Soda. It’s a natural solution for a variety of uses around the home and kitchen this season. Why use multiple household products that may contain chemicals when one box of Baking Soda can do the trick? And it costs only $1
Food Safe Surface Cleaning
Clean your food prep area and tools with natural, food safe ARM & HAMMER® Baking Soda instead of harsh cleaners. Sprinkle ARM & HAMMER® Baking Soda onto a clean damp sponge or cloth and wipe clean, rinse thoroughly, and then dry. Great for counters, stainless steel sinks, cutting boards, microwaves, lunch boxes, wooden spoons, oven tops, range hoods and more.


Recipe for Success
Make sure your holiday baked goods "rise" to the occasion! ARM & HAMMER® Baking Soda is widely used as an agent to promote leavening. As baking soda is heated, it releases carbon dioxide, which, in turn, causes dough or batter to rise, becoming light and porous. Make sure your holiday cakes and cookies are light and airy in texture with ARM & HAMMER® Baking Soda. We recommend opening a new box for baking.



Deodorize Drains and Garbage Disposals
What goes down sometimes comes back up. After you replace your box of ARM & HAMMER® Baking Soda in the refrigerator, don’t let it go to waste. To deodorize your drains and disposal, and keep lingering odors from resurfacing, pour your old box of ARM & HAMMER® Baking Soda down the drain while running warm tap water. Baking Soda will neutralize both acid and basic odors for a fresh drain.


Wash Fruits and Vegetables
An apple a day—cleaned the safe way! ARM & HAMMER® Baking Soda is the food-safe way to clean dirt and residue off fresh fruit and vegetables. Sprinkle a little baking soda on a clean damp sponge, scrub and rinse. For soft skinned produce, sprinkle baking soda in a bowl of water. Add produce, agitate, and rinse. Keep an ARM & HAMMER® Baking Soda Shaker on your sink for everyday use.





Freshest Flavor
Be sure to keep an open box of ARM & HAMMER® Baking Soda in your refrigerator to ensure the freshest tasting ingredients for holiday entertaining. This is especially important when storing garlic, onions or fresh holiday herbs and spices, which will transfer flavors to more delicate vegetables, meats and cheeses in the fridge. Be sure to change the box once a month for optimal freshness.



Polish Silver Flatware
ARM & HAMMER® Baking Soda can shine all your holiday silver in no time at all. Before your guests arrive for dinner, make a natural cleaning paste with three parts ARM & HAMMER® Baking Soda to one part water. Rub onto the silver with a clean cloth or sponge. Rinse thoroughly and dry for shining sterling and silver-plate serving pieces.



Manage Microwave Mess
Heating up all of your holiday leftovers may leave a mess in your microwave. Baking soda on a fresh, damp sponge gently cleans inside and outside the microwave and never leaves a harsh chemical smell. Rinse well with water. To keep odor at bay, place a box of ARM & HAMMER® Fridge-n-Freezer® in the microwave between uses.



Fluffier Mashed Potatoes
With weather getting cooler, we turn to our favorite comfort foods. Throw a pinch of ARM & HAMMER® Baking Soda into potatoes while mashing to make the fluffier.
