When it comes to common household items with a million practical uses, baking soda reigns supreme. We all know that baking soda is great for deodorizing stinky things, whitening your teeth, and helping with clean-up around the house, but did you know about the other weirdly unexpected and esoteric uses for baking soda?
In a pinch, baking soda can help relieve a jellyfish sting, make invisible ink, remove the musty smell from your old books, and even make your omelets look fluffier.
In addition to freshening up your stuffed animals and de-icing your frozen walkways during the cold winter months, baking soda can also be consumed for your health. Add a teaspoon or two of baking soda to an 8 ounce glass of purified water to drink away indigestion, heartburn, and other stomach problems.

SORRY! It was supposed to say water. I fixed it. Thanks for pointing out the mistake.
