A woman keen to ward off germs realised she had been using cheese instead of soap for days.
Miley started to become suspicious that her bar was not lathering up as it usually does after a number of hefty scrubs.
The Vancouver, Washington woman was in stitches when she realised why - the soap was in fact a block of cheddar.
The comical mix-up came about after Miley left the cheese on the counter one evening.
After a few drinks she mistook it for the bar of yellow, unscented soap she keeps by the sink.
She took to Reddit to highlight her mishap, writing beneath a picture of the soap: "Just realized my soap wasn’t working because it’s literally a block of cheese.”
Miley added: "I use a liquid soap for the dishes, bar soap like dis is gentler on my hands after I do chores if that makes any sense [sic].”
In response to one of the many comments that followed the post, she explained: "It was a couple days of 'Why isn’t this foaming?!'
"I come to realize it was a dried-out square of Tillamook sharp cheddar cheese.
“I suspect I left it out when I was intoxicated and just forgot.”
It is not the first time this month that cheese has played centre stage in a comedic episode this month.
On the first episode of Saturday Night Takeaway in March Anthony Joshua pretended that he needed to hire a new personal chef.
With Ant and Dec in his ear, the heavyweight champion encouraged one of the people interviewing to grate cheese on his rippling abs.
Speaking through Anthony's ear piece, Dec told him to say: "You know what somebody said to me the other day? That cheese could be grated on my abs" to Yvette.
Despite being rather hesitant at first, Yvette was more than happy to get started, as AJ lifted up his shirt to flaunt his solid torso.
When he asked Yvette if they 'should try it', she burst out laughing.
The scene ended happily with Yvette grating away on the 30-year-old's famous bod.
