Vaseline petroleum which I have named Vaseline..." The name "vaseline" is said by the manufacturer to be derived from German "Wasser" "water" + Greek έλαιον ("elaion") "olive oil". In 1859, Chesebrough went to the oil fields in Titusville, Pennsylvania, and learned of a residue called "rod wax" that had to be periodically removed from oil rig pumps. The oil workers had been using the substance to heal cuts and burns. Chesebrough took samples of the rod wax back to Brooklyn, extracted the usable petroleum jelly, and began manufacturing the medicinal product he called Vaseline. Vaseline was made by the Chesebrough Manufacturing
Grass jelly genus Stephania such as "Stephania hernandifolia" (also known as "Stephania japonica") and "Stephania capitata" are also being used as a substitute to create green grass jelly called "cincau minyak" or oily grass jelly. Usually, the process of making Indonesian green grass jelly doesn't require a cooking or heating process. Mixing leaf extract and water with the addition of a period of waiting time for coagulation at mild room temperature is enough. Indonesian green grass jelly has a distinct flavor compared to black grass jelly. It is absent of smoky flavor, almost no bitter taste, and has mild leafy flavor. Due
