I have been quite amazed - to my mind it is better than Vim and Ajax that I

anything.
I might let it soak for a little while if it's very bad, but a scrub and rinse

On what basis are you thinking it is toxic?
My mother was against it because she reckoned it rotted the clothes in
clothes washing, but she used detergents which we now find have health
problems. They were new then, and she would even put them in the bath. Oh

Morning Sol,

I'm not arguing with you Mary, but I do like a bit more evidence that
something is bad for you and how it is bad for you, before I stop using it.
I have never had any problems with this product, and feel that I should say
so. There are a lot of things out there that are bad in one context, but
I do use it Rowena, as a water softener in the washing machine. It does
make my hands wrinkly though, if I immerse them in it. I try not to use
anything with toxic substances in, i.e. All our shampoos, shower stuff, soap
etc., is paraben free and SLS and SLES free. I use Ecover stuff for the

No, Faith.
Baking soda (US) is bicarbonate of soda, or sodium bicarbonate.
Washing soda is sodium carbonate, a step or two away from bicarb. It got a
mention in the text on the pages whose links I posted. There was a
description on one of the sites, I think the steam engine one, saying what
Back in the 1780s Voltaire said good cooks were food poisoners.
I have found a good D.Washer deterg.powder called ECOVER which does a good
job[from HF store].
We first started using Melmac[melamine] dishes etc about 40 years ago at our
cabin at the lake.I still use cups now and then at
Melamine plastic is no different than any other plastic. They are
almost all formed from toxic monomers, catalysts, or give off toxic
compounds when curing. PVC is made from very toxic vinyl chloride,
acrylic from toxic methyl methacrylate, polyethylene from highly

Dear Sol,
We too cook with coconut oil, I use tko or Dr. Bonners soap they do not have suds or bubbles but they do an excellant job.

Any of those should work.

They have the Ecover dish soap which is my favorite, after trying lots of

Thanks again, Marshall. In one study done way back in the 80's? it
was shown that toxins in plastic wrap migrate into the foods they are
storing. It also showed that polyethelene was the only one that had
much lesser rates of transmission. Original Saran Wrap was the only
commercially
Thank you for this useful information Marshall. I sort of knew this but
didn't know the science of it, but I will keep this for future reference.
And I will still use 'the little white pads' grin dee
