Recently I was lucky enough to get the place to myself and luxuriate by soaking my feet in hot water and scrubbing off years of built-up callouses. Now my heals are so tender I can hardly walk on them. Was it the pickle juice? I half filled the water-bath canner and put it on the woodstove. I had a gallon jar of pickles in the back of the refrigerator, been in there a year so I threw out the pickles and added the juice to the canner, adding a cup of bleach for good measure. I must say my toes feel rejuvinated but my heals is hurting. Is it possible to scrub off too much callous? OH OH OH
