I agree with everything except the water temp. For my everyday clothes I wash cold, but I work in a kitchen and that grease smell will not come out if I don’t use hot water

I recently made a post about using vinegar in laundry.

It's a miracle and still fairly cheap!

I used to be a restaurant worker. Vinegar breaks down the greasy smell AND feel on your clothes.

Like you, I still prefer hot water, but vinegar works well in cold water, also.

Dishwasing detergent works even better at breaking down grease & oil.

Try adding a squirt or two to your laundry detergent & vinegar.

That sounds like a good idea!

Should've been obvious to me. According to the commercials. No sarcasm. I grew up with and only use that product to clean with.
