Morning Mike.

Too funny. Since we couldn't buy Ivory we bought this huge bottle of Dawn. Those old enough will remember the ads "Your soaking in it Madge".

They all do an excellent job, if they didn't they be gone. Be interesting to see the stuff being made, both are Proctor and Gamble Brands. Different colours, different scents, probably use the same production line.

I used to work in the industry Ken for Unilever and SC Johnson. They are all pretty much the same but for some reason P&G always seemed the the standard to aim for.

and it probably has the same basic soap made in China.

I once went to this warehouse to buy and AC compressor my friend sourced for me. Got it loaded in van and was getting ready to leave. The guy said what brand did you buy? I told him and walked over to this cabinet which was filled with labels for all kinds of brands. Handed me the Keeprite one and I just laughed.

Most of the detergents used for dish washing use petroleum based surfactants.

All you have to do is look at the bar code, if it begins with either 690, 691 or 692 it was made in China.

That's good to know.

Cases of C-19 have hit 5000 in my region with the majority of the new cases in the younger generations. Still the older generation is taking the brunt of the mortalities by a very, very large factor.


You see it when you are out. Seniors have masks and are social distancing. Younger folks are doing neither.


Going to be a long summer.

My Dawn's bar code starts with 37000 Josey.

Doesn't mean anything Mike. All detergents are formulated in the manufacturers own facilities, it's the components that may come from China. They are at least 80% water. You don't lug that around the world.
