My wife was trying to clean our kettle
I said, it needs CLR
she asked what CLR is
I said Calcium Lime and Rust. There is also Lime-Away.
She put the CLR in there. Then she washed it out many times. All of the mineral deposits washed away. She rinsed it out with water many more times, and then eventually cleaned it with vinegar after rinsing it many times. At least, I think that’s how she cleaned it. She’s the kettle cleaner, I don’t know much about it, other than that CLR exists.
It was very clean for a few months.
We got a regular kettle after that
Blogs and influencers telling you to use them without providing context about why you’d use them.
People following those blogs and influencers without asking the same questions.
Every comment thread on TikTok is people loudly arguing about things like that and later they potentially realize not everything is the same in every place.
Sigh.
