Another reason to like Michele. I finally figured out that the no phosphate dishwasher soap has arrived in our area and explains why our dishes never come clean anymore. I noticed yesterday that my lawn fertilizer now makes the same claim so I'm sure that will be as worthless as the dish soap. I've had enough of the nanny state; GET OUT OF MY LIFE!

I remember back in the day when they took phosphates out of Tide and other detergents. Our clothes were never really clean after that.

“Against this back drop the Industry fought against any out right prohibition of phosphate in detergents. There was also particular concern that diverse local regulations would create a patchwork of maximum phosphate standards among communities and states. The Industry tried to avoid any conflict by voluntarily agreeing to reduce detergent phosphorus concentrations to 8.7% in 1970 (Duthie 1972). This was considered only a first step by the general public. The Industry tried to prevent (or at least deter until an adequate phosphate-substitute was identified) legislation against phosphates in detergents more or less simultaneously on 1) a national level arguing scientific and policy grounds, and 2) on more local levels arguing against the legality of municipal and state phosphate bans or restrictions.”

Yeah like the new lemony natural ant sprays. The micro- pissants trying to attack my sugar in my kitchen laugh at it.

“Another reason to like Michele”

Yeah, I am coming around to that as well.

Thanks to Blood of Tyrants who posted this yesterday. You can replace the phosphates in your dishwasher soap with Trisodium Phosphate, carried at Home Depot and Lowe’s, 1 tsp per load. More details here:
