Lisa- Happy you’re keeping things simple despite the pressure to do otherwise!
Maraya – Such a good point about backpacking! I hadn’t even thought about that. So many other uses for soap nuts too!
Danielle- Thanks for sharing the link Maggie’s too.

I’ve used these too, and loved them. They do indeed work beautifully. They’re especially great for backpacking — the single kind of soap you can feel ok about using in the wild.

Angie, I just have to tell you how much your review meant to me. Not just because it was positive (which is awesome, of course) but because you GET what’s important about soapnuts, and you conveyed it so beautifully. This is especially meaningful to me because I’ve been getting lots of advice recently that in order to best appeal to the American public, soapnuts need to be processed to re-make them into a flashier, more convenient commodity (shampoo, liquid detergent, etc). I’ve resisted, because I feel strongly that the most amazing thing about soapnuts is their perfectly natural simplicity. Your review re-affirms that I’m not the only one thinks so. =D

Thank you, thank you, thank you — not just for the review, but for the encouragement, too.

Sincerely,
Lisa Albrecht

Can’t wait to try soap nuts when my current laundry soap (natural) runs out–you’ve convinced me for sure!

I’ve heard good things about Maggie’s as well and it’s in CA for those on the West Coast.
