if i were you, i wouldn't complain. why show your stupidity
to even more people?
seriously, why buy yellow dishsoap in the first place, and
second, why leave it where it might get mistaken for oil?
i buy different colors of dishsoap, including yellow on rare
occaision, but the working bottle is on the back of the sink
(in an unlabelled bottle, no less), so even if i happened to
have purchased yellow it wouldn't be confused with anything
else in the kitchen... including the oils. vegetable oil stays
in a cupboard (oils store best in the dark) & olive oil is
decanted from it's big bottle in the basement (cool & dark) to
a smaller (unlabelled) bottle on the counter by the stove.
it's not rocket science to tell things apart. perhaps you need
to clean off your counters so you can tell where things are.
