Seventh generation dish liquid

image

I recently replaced my household brand dish soap. I have been a long term dawn user and have been quite satisfied.

Making a household green not only is difficult but it can be costly.

Good thing this seventh generation dish soap was about a quarter more than my usual choice.

First thing I noticed was the great aroma. I selected the lavender floral and mint. Wow. It’s a relaxing scent that is light and not overpowering.

Cleaning power is great. I use stainless steel pots and pans which sometimes get pretty dirty with stuck on food. This 7th product has no problem with grease or stuck on messes.

I highly recommend switching to this green cleaner.
