What do you use Vaseline for?

I have a tub of Vaseline and have hardly scratched the surface. I'm curious whether anyone uses it for anything other than their lips.

I used these a bunch in some jungle training. Any petroleum based jellies worked great, so we used bacitracin packets as our additive.
Fun fact: dead bamboo will always be dry in the middle between two joints. You can split it up into a couple thin pieces and it makes great kindling.
Live bamboo will create a small pressure bomb.
Another fun fact for if you're in a deciduous forest, beach tree bark will always light, even when wet. It contains a flammable oil.
That's pretty neat!
That seems counter productive to tree survival
You don't have to peel bark from a live tree... There are usually plenty lying around in a forest like that. So no it's not really.
