What is "fizzy"?

Fizzy is a term used to describe a type of drink that produces bubbles or fizz when opened or poured. This effervescence is typically achieved through the addition of carbon dioxide, which creates the characteristic fizziness. Fizzy drinks can include sodas, sparkling water, and certain types of alcoholic beverages, such as beer. They are often enjoyed for their refreshing and bubbly qualities, and can be a popular choice for parties, picnics, or other social gatherings. In addition to their taste and texture, fizzy drinks can also have a cooling effect on the palate and can be a popular choice for those looking to quench their thirst on a hot day.

What is "soap powder"?

Soap powder, also known as laundry powder or washing powder, is a cleaning agent that is used for laundry purposes. It is typically made up of a combination of surfactants, builders, and other additives that work together to remove dirt, stains, and odors from clothing and other fabrics. Soap powder is designed to be dissolved in water, and can be used in both top-loading and front-loading washing machines. It is often preferred over liquid laundry detergent due to its ability to be stored for longer periods of time without losing effectiveness, as well as its ability to be used in high-efficiency (HE) washing machines. Soap powder is available in a variety of formulations, including scented and unscented, and is widely used in households and commercial laundry facilities.

A bread roll, also known as a dinner roll, is a small, round-shaped bread that is commonly served as a side dish or used to make sandwiches.
