"Adding salt to water makes it boil faster"

Just the opposite. Salt water has a higher boiling point so it will take longer to boil.

"Adding oil to pasta water stops it sticking"

True . . . but there an unwanted side effect . . . the sauce won't stick to the pasta.

"Sauté onion and garlic at the same time."

Not a good idea because the garlic will cook much faster then the onions leaving you with burnt garlic. Best to throw the garlic in just a few minutes before the onions are fully sauted

"To cook potatoes put them directly into boiling water."

If you do you will wind up with uncooked centers. For an evenly-cooked potato, place in cold water with some salt and use a steady heat to bring up to the boil.

"Scrambled eggs need milk."

No they don't. That leads to runny eggs with a diluted flavor. Just use eggs and give them a vigorous whisk before cooking them in hot butter.

The state of Ohio gives out different colored license plates (right) to those who have been convicted of DUI

Referred to here in Ohio as party plates :hmmm:

Tomatoes need refrigerating

When you bought them, did you get them from a refrigerator? Nope. Keep tomatoes on the kitchen worktop out of direct sunlight and once ripe eat within 3-5 days. To speed up the ripening process, place the tomatoes in a paper bag with an apple, which releases ripening ethylene gas.
