Dish Soap

Probably I should buy a dish soap from a health food store, but I am too cheap to do so! Basically what I use is a cheap dish soap that is not too concentrated. Up until now, I've washed all of my dishes by hand because I don't have a dishwasher.

Since I live in Canada, I buy something that's probably only available here. It's President's Choice regular dish soap (green in colour), which can be purchased at Loblaws and Fortinos in the Toronto area.

When I'm in the U.S. I buy another cheap dish soap, which is a regular lemon-scented dish soap made (I believe) by Ajax (yellow in colour) and available at the local Walgreen pharmacy store near where I visit my boyfriend in California.

I thoroughly rinse my dishes. With glasses and cups, I give them an extra rinse or two before pouring anything into them otherwise I find bubbles sometimes form signalling there may still be some lingering soap residue.

The bottom line is I stay away from concentrated dish soaps (like Palmolive, for example) that are more likely to leave a soap residue and I also stay away from dish soaps that contain anti-bacterial formulas.

The cheaper dish soaps tend to be the ones that work best for me because they are generally not concentrated, and they're good for my budget too!
