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
the process was to make the sodium bicarbonate. The paragraph on my
previous post said: Washing soda is a mixture of mostly sodium carbonate
decahydrate with some sodium sesquicarbonate and sodium bicarbonate in it.
For a more mundane explanation, unless you understand the technical jargon
on the websites, you might need to enquire at your local shopping centre,
though I think someone said washing soda was getting hard to find.
It's a white powder, or in crystal form, that people use to soften water.
If you google washing soda IMAGES you will see some packages that may ring
a
bell with you. Or not, if you are not over 55 and female.
