Best prepping channel. No panic, no click bait, just calm, sensible instruction

I really appreciate the way you ask us an important question, give us the short answer, then explain why. You are sure a valuable resource, and an excellent teacher.

I'm LOVING the CURLS!!! You're beautiful!!!!

I've mopped my (real) hardwood floors with a mild vinegar and water solution for 30 years and have the most beautiful floors I've ever seen!

Mrs. Rose Red your hair looks so lovely! I have naturally curly hair too

I'm curing sauerkraut, which each pint calls for 1 and 1/2 tsp of vinegar. I canned 4 pints of hamburger dill slices, which I believe, called for equal parts of vinegar & water. I use those pickles on hamburgers, but also in deviled eggs, potato salad, tuna salad and chicken salad. I was traveling with my husband when my leg became infected with pseudonymous, probably from a travel center shower, or so I suspect. My dermatologist at the time, cured that bacterial infection by having me soak the wound in a solution of vinegar & sterile water 3 times daily, for 5 to 10 minutes. In my case, it was 1 part vinegar to 5 parts water. I was told that a 1 to 12 ratio could even be effective, though a much weaker solution. Those are some of the ways that I find / learned that vinegar is useful to have on hand.

Good morning sweet lady!! ❤💜❤💜❤💜❤

I have seen many places on the internet that say that vinegar is great for cleaning glass top stoves. I did this. I am here to tell you DON'T. The vinegar ate through the black paint on the trim pieces on my counter top stove. It also altered the gasket around the top-and allowed things to leak into the cupboards underneath.

Years ago my aunt made the mistake of mixing bleach and vinegar. It really made her sick .I’ve always remembered that. Luckily she’s still going strong at 93. Great video.❤️

Thank you for your video Pam and Jim! I love your hair-I like it the other way too! When we bought our property about 10 years ago I found a pair of pliers that were totally rusted and would not open. I found a tall narrow bucket, filled it with vinegar, submerged the pliers. Within two days the rust was gone, I dried them well, sprayed WD-40 now the pliers are in my tool closet.

Your hair is beautiful

Thank you, Pam. Good information, as usual! would like to hear more about using vinegar in an emergency situation specifically for food.

It amazes me that people don't know this stuff. I am Sooo grateful to my parents for giving me the basics, and thank you for the refresher course. You guys do an awesome job.

Thank you so very much for teaching us and for helping us to be self-sufficient. Your lessons are invaluable, and I hope more people begin to notice your channel.

I love using vinegar, I started using it to clean the bathroom back when Covid entered our lives. I also found thst when I made your lemon curd recipe I would save the lemon pieces (or oranges) and I put them in a half gallon jar and fill up with vinegar. I would just keep adding to it. It smelt so nice. Great video 🇨🇦🌷

Great afternoon Miss Pam, Mr. Jim and the rest of the family, Love the new- do I dippity-do! Thank you for this video. You are ALWAYS very informative. Thank you so very much...

off topic.....BUT......Your hair looks cute curly like that as well!!!!!!!!!!!!! adorbs

I like the heavy duty vinegar bottles repurposed for water storage. The milk jugs will eventually leak, but I’ve never had a vinegar jug leak.

Speaking of hair, yours looks great. I like the new style.

Apple cider vinegar, without the mother, is what my boyfriend used to unclog his hair follicles and almost all of his hair grew back. Our old hairstylist recommended to try that before any hair loss/re-growth medications as they can cause permanent side effects. He soaked his scalp in the vinegar before shampooing, then conditioned as usual. Now the fullness has returned to the top of his hairdo....no more scalp shining through.

Sorry if it's tmi, but I discovered (thanks to antibiotics) that a combination of salt and vinegar in a sitz bath is excellent for stopping yeast, about 2c of vinegar to 1c of salt in as hot of water as you can tolerate, and if you can do this a couple times a day it works better. It usually stops discomfort and itching immediately. The longer I've used it, the fewer flare ups I've had trouble with over time.

This week I accidentally got garlic butter on my linen dress. I sprayed white vinegar on the area and it came out in the wash! Great segment on vinegar!

Adding apple cider vinegar to our dogs drinking water (1 tsp a quart) was recommended by the staff at Battersea Dogs Home. They give it routinely to all dogs at their famous dogs home, and said it helps with canine arthritis. (Yes, we adopted an older dog. I have a soft spot for the oldies.)

This is very informative. I use vinegar and baking soda around the house for cleaning and recipes. Vinegar and water is our household multi purpose cleaner.

I really love your channel. Please keep up the good work. I have learned loads already. You have been teaching me how to bake bread. Thank you

I love your hair with its beautiful curls. It’s very youthful!

I use Dawn ALL THE TIME for toilets and sinks. Never have issues with clogged drains. It's a fantastic degreaser. Cheap too.

Especially like your hair Ms. Pam, today!!!! Love this video!!!!!

Lots of good uses. In fact I just used it on my shower head recently. I could tell that holes in the shower head were clogged as it was spraying out like little pinholes, and it actually hurt your skin. I soaked it for several hours, and now it is good as new.

I've got about ten gallons of regular white vinegar. Need to get more other kinds, esp apple cider.

I love your curls Miss RoseRed 🌹 It looks so nice.

Clothing, linens, etc stubborn 'folds or creases' that will NOT iron out, just spray or dab full strength vinegar on the folds then iron over them. Folds will be permanently gone. I learned this in Home Ec in the '70's.

A shot of ACV stops heartburn instantly. It was the only thing that worked for me while pregnant. It also is fantastic for the gut. I use white vinegar to clean my coffee maker - run it through a few times and then just run through clean water.

Ohhh I never thought about the rubber in washer I use iit in every load cause it helps my hubby with his skin allergies .thank you ohh lord. GODBLESS sweetie

Nothing to do with your video, but I LOVE your new hair-do! Very pretty and updated!

😊Your channel has quickly become my favorite! I was terrible at science when I was a kid. I'm convinced that it's because my teachers were just "doing their jobs". (As a former homeschool mom, I'm not throwing stones bc I was also a boring science teacher. I learned when my kids were young to outsource our science classes so they would be inspired, rather than just checking a box.) I love how you tell the "why" behind everything. Who knew I was a science junkie! Thank you for your channel and all of the very helpful information! Have a great day!

I love your videos! Your curly hair is beautiful. God bless you both.

Have to tell you that I LOVE ❤️ your hair this way natural. Just beautiful.

Thank you for ole school wisdom!!

Just brilliant! So much good information. In 2015 my area had torrential rain and a 1000 year flood. My house is elevated on stilts and didn't flood but one afternoon I noticed that my floor felt wet & my socks were wet. By the time I woke next morning everything in my house was covered with mold. Every surface looked like a petri dish. A remediation company cleaned & sanitized and took my fabric furniture to their facility to clean. They told me to wash all my clothing, linen, etc. for 2 wash cycles with vinegar. It killed the mold and I was surprised to find that nothing smelled like vinegar.

Great info. And I just have to say..I LOVE YOUR HAIR. ❤️ zit looks alot like your sisters now. But fits your face so well. It also makes you look much younger. At least in my opinion 😉

Love your hair! The curls are pretty.

Thank you for the caveats on using vinegar. There's so much "vinegar's great for everything" info out there, it's nice to have some balance.

My personal favorite is one you didn't mention. I have dentures and even with daily brushing, calcium will build up on them. The EASIEST!!! way to get rid of the calcium is NOT to chip away at it (might damage the dentures), but soak the dentures overnight in Apple Cider vinegar! It dissolves the calcium and what doesn't directly dissolve is softened enough that a tooth brush will easily remove it. For a heavy calcium buildup, 2 or 3 nights will do it completely.

When I moved into my new apt the linoleum tiles were stained dark. I tried everything then I read on line to use vinegar, it works great! I spayed some on and used a brush and those old tiles brightened up so nice and clean! Hydrogen peroxide cleans blood much better than vinegar. Just pour it on full strength let it sit for a while, (it will bubble)then rinse and wash. If stains have been setting a long time you might need to repeat the process again and it does not bleach out the color of your clothes. I’ve used it on all kinds of fabric and it work great! I’ve let it set for days and it doesn’t harm the fabric. Hope this helps someone. I learned these 2 tricks this last year. No matter how old you get you can still learn something new.

Your hair is so fabulous!

Just a quick comment - love your hair curly!!

You should always keep your hair like that! GORGEOUS! P.s. not only Clorox brand but any chlorine bleach (for beginners) Also, to kill weeds, the ultimate is to add 1 cup salt, 2 T dish soap, and 1 gal vinegar. Dissolve the salt in the vinegar. Then add a couple tablespoons of dish soap. Absolutely genius.

Thank ya for providing the "specs" on why we need to keep vinegar on hand. Not totally off topic, but I love your hair like this! It's so fresh and youthful looking.

Love your new hair style, very pretty🥰

Your hair looks amazing in this vid!

Thanks for the great tips! Love your hair!

I use white vinegar in my laundry rinse cycle instead of fabric softener. Works great! Thank you for sharing your knowledge!

Pam, Love the hair! And I try to always vinegar on hand, cause it's so useful. Thanks for more info on it's uses.

Awesome tips! Love your channel.❤️

I love your hair in this video!

LOVE THIS!. Icit my cleaning supplies down by about 90% because I use vinegar solutions(water & dawn dish soap mix in the kitchen) . If it was good enough for Grandma to use its good enough for me. I never use it full strength on counter tops or appliances. Great disinfectant without the harmful chemical.

I swear you put out a video after I do something. You are amazing. I have several bottles down in the basement. I make soap and was using it and baking soda this morning to clean the greasy mixing utensils. Glad you are feeling better and have a great weekend!

Love your hair!

I use vinegar on my hair once or twice a month to remove product buildup, hair gel, etc. It also is useful to neutralize urine odor. I couldn't afford disposable diapers back in the early 80's so my babies were in cloth diapers. I would occasionally soak the diapers in diluted vinegar after washing them and hung them outside to dry.

Lots of really good information on wonderful vinegar! And I love your hair fixed curly! Very flattering!

In high school(70’s) I used to use vinegar on my hair. It made my hair so soft and shinny. Love your hair

Rose you are a font of good information. I'm so happy I found you!

Thanks for sharing

One thing that I use White Vinegar is: Spray on stainless steel cookware add a little baking soda to your dishrag and is a GREAT cleaner. My pans are 10 years old and you would not know it, they are still shiny and bright! When I was younger I got stung by a hornet. Granny cile made a paste of vinegar and baking soda not sure what it does but it did feel better!! Thanks so much for putting these videos out!!! There is so much contention and just plain weirdness in the world now that it is a great idea to have food storage. Keep safe and God Bless!!!

I had a funky smell in my kitchen sink drain that just wouldn't go away. I sprinkled baking soda and let it set for a while, then I poured enough vinegar down the drain to react with the soda and I let that set for a while. Then I ran the dishwasher, which sent enough water through the pipes to completely wash it all away. There is ZERO smell in my sink now, and it's been at least a month.

Your hair style looks so sassy - love it!

I love your curly hair!

I really love your new hairstyle! It’s very feminine and natural looking. I’m new to your channel and hope to watch many of your videos

Your hair is adorable today! Thank you for ur videos! I was trying 2 bleach shirts like reverse tye dye them one evening. Had done it several times before. Well this time I forgot to rinse the bleach out before I put it in the vinegar to neutralize the bleach..... Still regret that to this day. Could hardly breath. Was irritated and coughed for weeks and weeks. Can't handle smell good or perfume things any more. I'm highly sensitive to things that are prepelled by aerosols. And I just found out I have COPD. DON'T MIX WITH BLEACH!

Very well explained why or why not to use in certain ways. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and research!

We often spend days at the beach and grab supper at the marina. There are not public restrooms to wash our hands after digging in the sand and scouring for beach glass (and my daughter's favourite--fish bones). But there are bottles of vinegar with the condiments, so I'll pour a little over our hands and give a good rub. Makes me feel a little better about eating our burgers with our hands. Will also ask for vinegar packets at a fast food drive thru if they don't have wet wipes and use it to clean my hands.

Msn Rosered you are a TREASURE!. I LOVE VINEGAR SO MUCH THAT I WANT TO GIVE IT A BIG HUG. Ask Anna Mosley tip. Use when washing clothes.

I have been using apple cider vinegar as deodorant for years. Just spill a little on a washcloth and wipe each arm pit. Works like a charm! No harmful chemicals (aluminum) getting into your lymph glands. And NO you won't smell like vinegar when you sweat! It's cheap and it works!

Love the hair

I keep distilled vinegar and Bragg's ACV in the pantry, since I cannot distill vinegar, and Bragg's is just so GOOD! Yum! I make vinegar for cleaning the bathroom and kitchen. I, too, keep it in a spray bottle, and usually will add so essential oils like tea tree or oregano, for the scent and sanitizing abilities. I wash vegetables in a diluted solution of white vinegar. White vinegar is great to de-rust old cast iron, as you showed in a video. I don't have nice stone countertops or things like that, so It's safe for my applications. I also use it as a laundry rinse; it is very dilute in the washer, but still cuts the soap. Citrus vinegar is nice for cleaning, although vinegar can be made from any plant material (as a scientist you probably already know this, of course!). Mine always comes out to pH 3 or 2.5. I make rose petal vinegar every year as a hair rinse. Since I make my own soap for bathing and hair cleansing, a dilute solution of vinegar to restore the acid mantle of the skin and hair is healthful. It's also a lot cheaper than commercial hair care products....not judging; your hair, ma'am, is GORGEOUS! Just as an aside, thank you for the quality presentations. Delivery and excellent English language. I peek at some channels when the algorithm recommends them; but it nothing cogent is said within the first 30 seconds, I bail out. So thank you, Pam and Jim.

Thank you for all the work you and Jim do to help educate people. I enjoy your channel very much. Curls suit you and is a very youthful look. You are a stunning redhead!

I put a cup of vinegar in every load of laundry. It makes the white clothes whiter and I do believe it's a disinfectant. I have parrots and I use it to clean their room too.

We have used white vinegar water to spray on cuts and scrapes to avoid infection. I also use apple cider vinegar and water to rinse my hair instead of putting on conditioner. It leaves my hair tangle free and it controls my dandruff

Can't thank you enough for all this information, I am so glad to know about the Clorox Vinegar warning! This is great and I have shared it with my friends. I look forward to your podcasts for the information and the hopefulness, so important in these hard times. Again, love your hair that way. Thanks, Donna

It's easy to make your own vinegar, using fruit scraps, sugar and water, if you run out in a grid-down situation. It does take a couple weeks, though. I use a chopped apple and whatever other fruits I have on hand. Lately, I've been making a lot of citrus vinegar using leftover grapefruit, lemon, lime, and/or orange rinds.

I used to sell Avon in East TX when I was25. I would be out selling and delivering the goods when my kids were in school. One elderly couple would buy a lot of goods from me. One day we were talking and the gentleman told me that acv got rid of his dandruff. Ever since then I knew some of the good results from using the acv on my hair. Now another use they you said about the shine on your hair. Thanks

Thank you.

Thanks for the refresher!

Thanks so very much for all the awesome information that you give us. Also love your curly hair. Blessings

Thank you so much for these (and other) tips. I really appreciate you and your channel. I've been learning a lot about dehydrating vegetables and fruits, etc. from you, also!

You gave me some ideas. I appreciate your videos so much.

Another great, informative video! Thank you Pam and Jim!😊

Another very informative video. It brought back lots of memories of using on my hair when it was very dark brown. I just did my shower head last week. Lots of new ideas here, thank you so much for all you and Jim do to keep us informed. God Bless.

A great and very helpful and Informative video!

Love your new doo!

Another great video guys!
