    Are those the birds they wash with dish soap after oil spills? The ones that die anyway because they’ve ingested tons of petroleum contaminated shit that they can’t purge or digest?

      Came here to say something like this…

      “Wait why is the duck covered in black goo. Is that oil?”

      “Listen don’t worry about that, dawn soap cuts through all sorts of oil”

      “But don’t ducks need to have a thin coat of their natural oil on their feathers to protect them from the elements?”

      “Let’s change the subject, we have to dry this duck, and for that, we’ll turn to the Quicker Picker Upper…”

        Ducks losing their natural oil isn’t the issue here. They can get that back pretty easily.

        It’s more that being completely covered in crude oil is very bad for you because it’s crude oil, and just washing it off doesn’t fix the issue.

    I don’t like to simp for big companies, but I used to always buy the cheapest dish soap and now… That dawn spray foam is the tits. So little of it does so much

      The foam spray gives me like a fuzzy lung feeling when I breathe after spraying. I told my brother as well as my wife about it and both assholes asked if I was huffing it.

      I’m calling it now, I’m going to be the dawn foam mesothelioma poster child

        The Environmental Worker’s Group gives regular Dawn an A-B rating (depending on scent) and a C rating for the foaming stuff, so it wouldn’t surprise me if you’re right. Probably not a huge issue with home use, but if you’re a dishwasher for a decade using it, who knows.

      It’s not simping to help others out with solid product suggestions. I’ll try Dawn next time. Wife buys the cheap watery shit, can’t convince her she’s saving money by purchasing water.

      My big one is Arm & Hammer stuff: antiperspirant, toothpaste and laundry soap. No gagging perfumy smells, toothpaste is neutral tasting, all of it cleans. And they’re not even a premium brand.

        I’ve done a few consumer panels before in regards to shampoo and soaps, my most common comment is “I like that it smells like I’ve clean myself in the shower, then goes away”.

        I want to be olfactorally invisible. Just literally no smell at all, not human, not floral.

      I work in a kitchen and rarely we run out of soap. If they bring anything besides dawn back they’re sent out to try again. Dawn is the only thing that works

    In my house we call it duck soap. When we run out we add duck soap to the grocery list. When there is a picture of a baby duck on the label, what else could it be?
