[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 532571, member: 1233"] Thanks all. I just could NOT believe it. I cannot see why febreze is so 'special' to husband. I have used vinegar, and it is great for dealing with many cleaning issues. I have a small bottle in my bathroom and try sniffing it when I get exposed to some smell that bothers me. it doesn't work very well, but does take away a bit of the intensity of the headache. As for the next ccontainer that comes into the house? I told husband I would go ahead and take the headache from spraying the ENTIRE thing into his face to see if he gets sick. I wouldn't go that far, but he might get some febreze flavored food for a while. Esp as less than a month ago I had a fit over febreze because the smell and because they were spraying the kitchen WHILE cooking and in fact sprayed heavily over plates of food and once even over an entire pot of soup! The ENTIRE thing tasted nasty and after a bite had to be ptched. And OF COURSE one of them sprayed it into the microwave so taht everything you cooked for days smelled and tasted like febreze. If thsi was teh FIRST problem I had, it wouldn't bug me. But it is about the fifteenth in the last 6 mos, so husband is on notice taht he might end up drinking the stuff. trust me, it is teh nastiest tastng stuff out there. Thanks for reassuring me I am not crazy. i am sorry for the rest of you who are sensitive to smells. My kids cannot even put ae on at school because when they came home it would still make me sick.
