I remember a Homer Price story about a guy selling a product called Eversomuch - More So. Invisible and tasteless but if you sprinkle a little on anything it became even better. Like sprinkle it on a doughnut and it became the best doughnut you ever ate. Upset the town with worry, like what if they ran out, where would they get more. Homer ended up with a huge pile of the stuff, pondering what to do with it. Being a story for kids he dumped it in the town's water supply . And being a story for kids everything returned to its idyllic normal.
