The true stories behind everyday household items and their creators, from corkscrews to cat litter.

Which came first, sliced bread or the toaster? When did most people begin wearing deodorant? Who invented the electric blanket? Discover the answers to these questions and more, with a fact-filled room-to-room tour that reveals the histories of everything from fire extinguishers to fabric softeners.
