This may sound a little like a Paul Harvey "Good day" endorsement, but fact is, I've been giving Dr. Bronner products a whirl for the first time since the 1980s and am delighted to endorse them, no strings attached. Excellent stuff!
What is Castile soap? It is olive oil-based, not made of animal fat. Olive oil plus a little of this (organic) and a little of that (organic). Unless you are a hungry bird of some sort, far preferable to products blended with tallow, suet or lard, certainly. There are also a number of "progressive" rationales for using Dr. Bronner's Magic Soaps and ancillary products, as well (Fair Trade, certified organic, etc.). A link to the official website: http://www.drbronner.com/
Dr. Bronner's products can be found at Target stores in the "health / natural products" area (as of this posting), at "health" stores and eateries, and online (including Amazon). Probably other places, too, but I've actually seen them sold in the aforementioned marketplaces.
So far, I've done laundry (colors) with Dr. Bronner's liquid soap and used it as shampoo. It works for both, very well. I use conditioner after shampooing. A little of the liquid soap goes a long way. I've also used the liquid soap for washing dishes. Advice: rinse and dry thoroughly to remove any soap streaks. Haven't tried it as toothpaste. Have tried the shaving gel -- very refreshing! Oh yeah -- you can also use the liquid soap for cleaning all sorts of surfaces. Worth trying! "ALL-ONE!"
Today's Rune: Defense. n.b. olives are technically a fruit, not a vegetable.

I'll have to give it a try. Sounds like it's nice and cleansing.
Erik, I haven't used Dr. Bronner's in 20 years and it's time again. I am so pleased this product is still available. Thanks for the reminder!
