Quiz answers!

Ok...so about 70 people viewed this post but only 2 were brave enough to answer.  They did pretty good at their guesses too!  Nice job Kelly & Jessica you both got several of them correct and were very close on others.   

Item #1 - It is used in the washing machine but it is not detergent.  It is a lime scale remover.  We have hard water here so it prevents the build up over time. 

Item #2- Baking powder.  These packages are quite small.  They contain about 1 tablespoon each.  You can buy them individually or in packs of three or four.  Around Christmas, you may find a round plastic bottle of baking power but not the other times of the year.

Item #3- Baking soda.  Again, a smaller package that contains about 1/4 cup.  

Item #4 - White wine vinegar.  You know the kind used for salad dressings and other things.

Item # 5- Regular vinegar.  Pickling is a big thing here in Hungary and Eastern Europe in general.   You can buy 8%, 10% and 15% acidity.  There may be more that I haven't noticed.

Item #6- Facial tissues -ie: kleenex.  Most commonly they come in these plastic bags all folded up.  I actually really like them in the bag.  They are generally less expensive and thicker tissues.  I do buy boxes every one in a while too. 

Thanks for viewing!  I hope it provided a little window into everyday life here in Hungary.
