Hippie Soap
A while back, the munkee and I talked about trying to phase a lot of the toxic chemicals out of our home...the majority of which come from our cleaning supplies. Slowly, I have been replacing things as the old containers are emptied.
While shopping yesterday I found this cool liquid soap called Dr. Bronner's Magic Soap. It is a very concentrated 18-in-1 hemp-peppermint castile soap that smells really nice. We called it hippie soap because it's made with the hemp and organic oils. Not only does it smell like a cup of herbal tea, but it can be used to clean so many things. This morning, I tried it out on the kitchen floor and it looks pretty good. It can be used as a body wash, laundry detergent, dish soap heck, you could probably eat the stuff!
While it's cleansing powers and versatility are laudable for sure, its makers have some pretty weird ideas. I guess Dr. Bronner was an Orthodox Jew from Germany. Who knows what he believed at the end of his life...but now the universalist, pseudo-spiritualists who produce and market his soaps and refer to him as the "Pope of Soap", hold nothing back.
Regardless of some funkadellic views, I think I like this product. And besides, I'll never know what the makers of 409 believe anyhow.
