How can I clean my garbage disposal?

Question: How do I clean a garbage disposal? My garbage disposal stinks!

Answer: Clean your garbage disposal and sharpen disposal blades with this two-step process. First pour one cup of baking soda and two cups of vinegar down the disposal to bubble away bacteria and grime. Then follow up with two cups of ice cubes and plenty of cold water as you run the disposal. Do not put lemon peels down the disposal; they will stick to the sides of the disposal and rot, creating a foul odor.
