I am not sure where this question would fit, but I thought I would go to all of you first. I have a couple of bottles of soy oil and a couple of pounds of smelly jelly beads just sitting here. I would rather use them if possible instead of selling them for next to nothing. Anyway, my question is, can't you use soy oil for cooking or is that just gross? Also, could I add the smelly jelly beads to my house plants to help with keeping them moist longer? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. TIA, Kristy
