I guess white teas sales are down. Some people would bathe in pig crap if they were told it was good for them.
My mother told me of an incident she had as a young girl. (circa early 1900s)
The word was fresh cow manure placed on your skin would get rid of freckles.
Well, she had freckles on her face, so you guessed it.
She sat on a pasture fence and waited for the 'plop', got the manure and rubbed it on her face.
I don't recall how long she left it on but she said it took the freckles and half her skin with it.! LOL
