I have just finished my last drop of Jif (kept for when that extra bit

of
cleaning was required!)

Is there anything on the market that really gets through grease and
grime?
I have a cupboard full of useless cleaning materials including Cif.


You taking the mick?

Cif is Jif.

Cif is supposed to be the same but it does not clean as well as the old

Jif.
It is more creamy and runny than the old stuff.



As far as I know only the name changed,twas something they found out about
Jif? and wasn't good for the brand?

As I heard it, the name Cif (used in Europe) was deemed unacceptable for
us due to the similarity to syphilis. Not sure what made them change
their minds.

Hypothyroidism is a seriously debilitating condition with an insidious
onset.
Although common it frequently goes undiagnosed.
