RE: Soap! Was Holiday food

'Tis true, Jim.  But to my body, it doesn't seem to make much difference.  I
use soap/ detergent free products for personal cleansing, but can get by
with some liquid soaps in the laundry if I make sure things are well rinsed.
Before the liquid products, I was stuck with Dreft and multiple rinses.  (In
an area of hard water--mineral deposits in the water--that meant lots of
yellowing.  (Bleach is not my friend either.)  When I can't find adult soap
free/detergent free products, I go back to baby products.  I can clean with
oil when absolutely necessary, but I much prefer a more adult, fragrance
free product.  Of such is life.

Most-like soap products, Bonnie, aren't soap. They're detergents. Big, 
big difference.
