How to Get The Sour Milk Smell Out of Plastic Sippy Cups

23 Responses

1. I was told it's a HUGE NO NO to keep anything that has been sitting for who knows how long with spoiled/curdled milk in it. No dishwasher here to sanitize but even if there was one I would still be told its wrong. Even though I don't see what the big deal is about keeping it if you wash it really well.

11. Awesome tip! I wonder if it would work for plastic tupperwares too... sometimes we get weird dairy curdling action going on in those if we leave them sit around too long. Thanks for sharing at The Fun In Functional!
