I have used vinegar for 3 years now and my clothes do not smell like vinegar.... It does work ... I also add baking soda to my laundry mix to help as well

I have been using my own laundry detergent for a couple of years now. I love it but last night my husband was complaining that it doesn't get his underwear white. He thought all the whites look dingy. I suppose that's true. I guess it just doesn't bother me. I'm wondering if anyone has ideas on how to whiten things like underwear and socks. I have suggested that he put vinegar in the rinse cycle by he refuses to do that. He says the clothes will smell like vinegar. I don't know what else to do. Since the laundry is in the basement, he is the one who puts them in the washer. Any ideas? I did buy some bleach for my son's socks, but I can't use bleach at all in my clothes. I react very badly to it.

But there are some things I know for certain: always throw spilt salt over your left shoulder, keep rosemary by your garden gate, plant lavender for luck, and fall in love whenever you can.
