To go to hospital

[Isinknot]

DP put Shake n Vac in the mince instead of salt. We are it and only realised later.

AIBU to seek medical assistance?

[JinglingHellsBells]

I think you both need medical assistance but not for the reason you ask.

[Isinknot]

@Nonotthisagain I suspect there are easier ways to get rid of me than putting carpet freshener in my dinner. Although you can never be too sure.

[Coriandersucks]

When did you realise op if you couldn’t taste it? Are you sure it definitely happened?

I didn’t know Shake n vac still excited tbh I might have to get some tomorrow my carpets could do with a freshen up.

[Coriandersucks]

Not in that did you imagine it more than is it a case of he could have done it rather then definitely did

[IHopeYouStepOnALegoPiece]

I’m just penning a letter to Glade to recommend their new slogan of
“Use the shake and vac and put the sodium back”



I mean seriously, if by any stretch of the imagination this is true, neither of you should be allowed anywhere near a stove or chemicals without adult supervision

I once drank my contact lens solution.
Id put my lenses in at my desk before going out to lunch, came back all hot and bothered after a brisk walk back and downed the last of the water in the little plastic cup on my desk.
Except it wasnt water my face was a picture apparently....

[LadyMacbethWasMisunderstood]

Sone people really don’t read packaging. I used hair conditioner ever day for about a week as body lotion and only checked the package when my arms started to itch and peel.

I work quite a demanding job fairly competently. And am considered not to be overly strange! We all make mistakes. This has made me laugh. Drinking lots of water is a good idea.

When I was a teen and needed to get on the right side of my Mum I decided to Shake n Vac my bedroom carpet but succeeded in murdering Freddie the Fish in his goldfish bowl as well, poor fecker Freddie was flapping about in his water and I didn't twig why, although it was obviously the fumes from said Shaky stuff R.I.P. Fred sorry mate, oh dear the guilt was awful

[DailyKegelReminder]

Na just shake yourself off in the garden and hum for a little while, you'll be grand.


I washed my hair with dog shampoo once, realised once I slathered it on my hair. Gross, but had very shiny hair fur

[Justajot]

That link seems to say that shake and vac is made of calcium carbonate (chalk) and silicon dioxide (sand). I'm not sure what I thought was in it, but that's an unbelievable con.

[Kaiserin]

Do you normally keep cleaning items near food stuffs?
This.
Also, if the story is true... how did you find out?
Full narrative please, from the moment it happened, to the moment someone realised. With dialogs.

@SadiePurple amazing 😂😂

[StepAwayFromGoogle]

If it's any help, OP, I once managed to mix up nail glue and optrex drops - and dropped nail glue in my eye. One trip to A&E later and my eye was fine but I came close to dying of humiliation.

[TrainspottingWelsh]

Stick the vaccum hose down your throat, you'll be as fluffy good as new. Or up your arse if you want a nice fresh pile.

[Toddlerteaplease]

You need to rinse your mince.

Crying with laughter at that!

[Pickles89]

Yeah, for me it was mistaking the Toilet Duck for a bottle of spirulina smoothie. These things happen!

[ladymuck111]

@Hippofrog

When your mince smells fresh so do you
Next time you cook your mince you know just what to do.....

Literally LOL'd

[boomchikawowwow]

Was it a fragrance that complimented your mince?

[Ontheboardwalk]

Pickles89 toilet duck is renowned for being a sneaky fecker and getting in on the action

I once put some toilet duck on my fish and chips thinking it was vinegar. Only when I’d had half my chips did I realise

[PurpleDaisies]

I like to serve my fruit with toilet duck for that touch of class.

Toilet duck a l’orange.

[Gizmo79]

Oh sorry isinknot you are the alleged idiot who wants to waste A&E time for something as frivolous as this. IF it is true then have a google, there is a handy website to point out poisonous substances which I am sure would be of more use than MN. Not knocking MN there btw!

[DaphneFanshaw]

At least it was shake and vac, not a pet hamster.

[oakleaffy]

Isn't it highly scented bicarbonate of soda?

Don't believe it 🤔? It looks NOTHING like salt in the packaging.
