I do! I only get small bottles, though, so I don’t get all the good stuff that’s on the really big bottles. If you’ve never tried it, Dr. Bronner’s Sal Suds is an amazing cleaner. It gets out blood stains like you wouldn’t believe.

Dear Friends;  
Dr. Bronner is the Keeper of the word…  
The Way of the Truth…  
but ya hafta buy the BIG bottle to get the “Secret” message!  
…no the secret message ISN’T “Drink-Your\_Ovaltine”…

P.S. Never brush your teeth with Bronner’s…  
My word of advice

The Doctor is on, The Doctor is Happy

Dr. Bronner’s rocks. Best travel product ever.

I’ve always found the warning section particularly charming: “Warning! Keep Out of Eyes! Wash Out with Water! Don’t Drink Soap! Dilute! Dilute! or Wet Skin Well! OK!”

My current bottle of Sal Suds is boring. It’s all lists of ingredients and “New Improvements for Dr. Bronner’s Sal Suds.”

But we do have this:

Confucius Absolutes teach since 600 BC how to unite all mankind free by full-truth, hard work, God’s law, Eternally One! All-One! Modern English by soapmaker Bronner!

2nd: It is an absolute full-truth that every body in God’s tremendous universe must eat or there is no body! Example: To shine on, eat must even the sun, attracting, exploding on its surface, every second, 400,000 metric tons meteoric matter! Exceptions eternally? Absolute none! To shine on, eat must even the sun! “ALL-ONE!”

3rd: It is an absolute full-truth that every ounce of good food requires teamwork by each and every human being in harmony with God’s law, timing-teamwork-wisdom-power-mercy-love, or there is not one ounce of good food left on God’s spaceship Earth, united by a new Birth, decreed above! Above! Exceptions? Absolute none!
