Original Note:
Robert Chesebrough, Vaseline's inventor, claimed to eat it daily and credited it for recovering from pleurisy. Though he lived to 96, there's no proof Vaseline improved his health. Snopes confirms the claim but finds no supporting medical evidence. https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/vaseline-inventor-ate-petroleum-jelly-daily/
