How do I get cooking oil spots out of clothes?

share bear asked:


I spilled some cooking oil on a favorite pair of pants and a t-shirt. The dark spots did not come out of the pants. Also, the washing maching has a warning to never dry anything in the dryer that has had oil on it. (Even cooking oil, it says.) Will it ever be safe to dry the pants again.

    Try pre-treating with some dish detergent. Then wash.

    Mean Green works for me. I can only find it at the Dollar General where i live in Nashville. (Be careful and not get the one with bleach, they make both kinds.)
