Hey, your a mom, have you noticed how fast soap is dissolving now compared to a few years ago? I want to find a few bars of 20+ year old soap and compare how fast it dissolves against a new bar of the same stuff.

It sure seems like we are using a whole lot more in the shower than we ever did, and since most people are brand specific buyers this just means bigger sales each year for people like Unilever and Proctor and Gambles.

How do you like my tinfoil hat, kind of tight huh?

I believe that today's soaps contain more moisturizers than the soaps of old. They aren't designed to last, but to provide lather and moisture.

It doesn’t pay to have a quality long lasting product. They don’t want it to last longer.

Is my tinfoil hat tighter than yours?

NOTHING is made as well as it used to be. Everything, IMO, is designed to be used up or quit working in a very short time. I have no doubt of this. (Adjusting tinfoil hat to look dashing!)

Maybe not - I’ve been thinking the same thing lately. Seems like every time I turn around I have to open a new bar.
