Battle of the household cleaners

It's somewhat Ironic I write this entry 2 days after Kirstin finishes work. I thought housewives were meant to do all the cooking and cleaning, however I was originally attracted to her intelligence, so I guess that can't be held against her.

I cleaned the shower today. Normally I use Jif for this, however our portable wastemaster (aka dog) decided to turn the jif into a toy. The resulting perforations were enough to leak the entire bottle of Jif everywhere it was placed.

So Jif wasn't an option today. I moved onto the Mr Muscle Orange Action. Now, this particular product had amused me in the past, much like Baking Soda toothpaste. I often wonder if the special ingredient (ie the orange or baking soda in this case) actually made a difference, or if it was just to give the marketing people something to work with. Being the sceptic that I am, I assumed the latter, and naturally gave Kirstin a ribbing when she purchased some orange power cleaner from the supermarket, harnessing the natural "grease cutting power" or Oranges.

Turns out I was wrong. The orange cleaner shits all over Jif when it comes to cleaning power, and you don't get that annoying white residue left over which takes ages to rinse off. Right on Mr Muscle. Go you.
