Guest guest Posted May 19, 2012 Report Share Posted May 19, 2012 I bought a organic cotton mattress and box springs. Well, it stunk so had because of the plastic it was wrapped in,it was weeks before I could even sleep in it. I tried airing out the bedroom as much as possible(in the winter), and sprinkled baking soda on it, and on the carpet to soak(my whole bedroom stank because of it), and vacuumed. I put more plants in the room, and opened up boxes of baking soda and set them up in the room. Set out bowls of white vinegar. Still, it took a long time for the smell to go away, and that smell, while it was there, burned my throat. I posted the andy griffith. I have always used a flat feather pillow, and all cotton sheets. the mattress pad, I paid a lot for, but it was not all cotton-only part. In the Little House books- " Farmer boy " about Almonzo, they ate vegetables, meats, and sugar desserts, but they were well to do, and could afford the sugar.(kids getting into the sugar, and eating a lot of it, was considered a No NO) . Seems mostly as I remember my family, and my grandparents, it was mostly holidays they had lots of cakes and pies, not often. I went to the World Market store today, and got some spices, they were nonirradiated. Saw the 2 part documentary " Big Sugar " did not know Sugar played, and still plays so big a part in history. I knew it could only be produced then by the slave trade, and even now-those working in the cane fields are in virtual slavery.
