National Bicarbonate of Soda Day National Bicarbonate of Soda Day, or Baking Soda Day, celebrates the many benefits and uses of Bicarbonate of Soda.


Just how does Baking Soda work and what, specifically, does it do? Few people seem to know. It's quite simple. We will skip the chemistry lesson and how Baking Soda is made. Let's just talk to what it is, and what it does. Bicarbonate of soda is a chemical compound - sodium carbonate or sodium bi-carbonate. When heated, it creates carbon dioxide, a gas. The gas aids a variety of bakery products to rise as they cook.


Many people just think of Bicarbonate of Soda as something you use for baking. But, it has so many more uses. Here are just a few of them:

Baking- helps baked goods, like bread, to rise
Relieve stomach indigestion and heartburn when mixed in water

And, the list goes on, and on, and......

Earlier today I went out with benj59 and heh324 to do the Russellville Road power trail. Our time was somewhat limited, yet we still managed to find over a hundred in about 3 hours.

When I got back home, I realize that I still had enough daylight to see if I could break my record for finds in a day. I somehow pulled it off and broke 150 for the day. All of these caches out here in the plains were crucial in helping me achieve this goal. Thanks to all the CO's for placing and maintaining these fun hides.
