Forgot food in crockpot and the lid won’t stop stinking

Don’t shame me, please, lol, but I forgot there was still food in the crockpot when I stowed it away.. for two months.

I’ve cleaned the thing 1462 times now, and even cooked in it and it didn’t even ruin the new food.. but it still stinks. Granted, not as much as before, but still quite an odor if I put my nose near the lid. The pot itself fared a little better, can hardly smell anything after washing it an equal number of times.

Any ideas on how I can get rid of the smell completely? I haven’t dared to put it in the dishwasher, I’m not sure it that can ruin it or not..

Could sprinkling baking soda on it help? Do I add something else too?

Thanks for reading 💛
