Weird Household Chemistry.
Washing up tonight, I washed out an empty Vegemite jar and a Peanut Butter jar. Then the dish water smelt like cigarette butts. OK. Now all of you go out and smell the Vegemite and peanut butter together. Am I crazy? Or did it react in some weird way to my special mix of dirty pots.

Hi TL,
Must have been a reaction to something else in the dishwasher.... I have been known to have both of those spreads together and it never smelt/tasted like cigarette butts!
Cheers,
Chipman

I know you believe you understand what you think I wrote, but I'm not sure you realize that what you just read is not what I meant.

This is completely off-topic, but it really is Peanut Butter. It was called Peanut Paste in Australia because:
When margarine was introduced to this country, a regulation was created that only butter could be called 'butter', and no other substance was to be called 'butter', so that the dairy industry was protected and also to protect the consumer from buying margarine that was incorrectly named. As a consequence of this, Peanut Butter became Peanut Paste in this country, because they weren't allowed to call it 'butter'.
I'm a mine of such useless information...Bob C.
Never give up.

IIRC, the law applied in Queensland & maybe some other states. I don't think it ever applied in NSW, but was introduced by the Country Party Govt. to protect the dairy farmers, in the same spirit as the law that said margarine couldn't be coloured to look like butter - had to be green.
