Help! BBQ Sauce Stain on My Bottle: What Can I Do?

[newbietoPC]

I put BBQ sauce in the bottle this weekend and now it is stained orange?? Has this happened to anyone else??? How can I fix it???

I put in some bleach and soapy water and let it soak for a little while and mine came out clean. My BBQ stayed in it for about a week and the bleach cleaned it up.

bleach in a food container!?!?!? is that safe?: O

I am required to use diluted bleach as a sanitizing agent in my day care... it's fine as long as you have it diluted and it shouldn't take too long to clear it I wouldn't think. You could always swish it with baking soda water afterward if you wanted to also.

Hi there! I'm sorry to hear that your BBQ sauce bottle has been stained orange. This can happen sometimes with certain sauces and ingredients. One way to fix it is by soaking the bottle in warm water and dish soap for a few hours, then scrubbing it with a sponge or brush. You can also try using a mixture of baking soda and water to scrub the stain. If those methods don't work, you can also try using a specialized stain remover for tough stains. Hopefully one of these solutions will help restore your bottle back to its original color. Let me know if you have any other questions - I'm always happy to help!
