Reddit mentions of Dawn Soap, Blue, 21.6 Fl Oz , 2 pk

There is a warning

I guess that myself, with many others, did not read the back label for dishwashing soap before putting it in the dishwasher. It says it, but I am not very smart.

48 ounces for $11.

Dawn is a dishwashing soap it can be found in most American supermarkets as well as Home Depot and Target.

The blue variety is the basic no frills original formula of Dawn. It is a dark indigo color.

To differentiate from other kinds with added scent and foaming action, I just call it "blue Dawn."

Their really isn't much to it, residue free and cost effective, 2 bottles for 10 bucks, I typically get some through Amazon, here's the exact one I've been using for years, http://www.amazon.com/Dawn-Ultra-Dishwashing-Liquid-Original/dp/B001XQ7LOS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1373341739&sr=8-1&keywords=dawn+dish+soap

Yeah, you want to make sure you get the dishwasher tabs and not use liquid dish soap that you use to clean dishes in the sink. Using dish soap, instead of something made specifically for dishwashers will cause the soap to create massive suds, which will overflow and make a giant mess.


There are also dishwasher gels and powder, powder is the cheapest but being a powder is generally seen as much less convenient, and if you get water in the box then gg. Gels are more popular than powder, less popular than the tabs.


Generally, I've always cleaned food debris or soaked food caked on dishes in the sink before putting them in the dishwasher. There are also certain items that are better to be hand-washed.
