Butter. It just rips a fat hole in your bread when you make a sandwich.

A week’s holiday in Jaywick, Clacton, or Gt. Yarmouth.
Added to that, any period of time in a static caravan park, complete with clubhouse, my BIL talked me into going to one for a weekend, and I wanted to slash my wrists after one night.
My wife drove me to a station, and I took a train back to civilisation.

Supermarket-brand washing up liquid: it's crap, you'll use half a bottle and still have greasy plates. Just buy Fairy Liquid.

Raw chicken from Aldi: Only buy it if you particularly like eating things that smell like a rotting corpse.

Off-brand stock cubes: Useless and bland or just taste weird. Knorr all the way.

Cheap ketchup: It has to be Heinz or it's not worth putting near your food.

Baked beans: Again has to be heinz, cheap beans are disgusting.

Originally, soda crystals were what your grandma, or great-grandma used in the copper to wash clothes, they helped to dissolve grease, loosen dirt and soften water, but I’m guessing that reecejackox meant soda in the American sense.
In the U.S. all soft drinks are sodas, Pepsi, Coca-Cola, 7 Up, Sprite etc.
