After a long week of paper writing and spreadsheet wrestling, I’ve got a looot of dishes to do this weekend. Good thing Consumer Reports decided to issue their list of the best dishwasher detergents this week. And guess what? Two green brands — Ecover and Seventh Generation — made the grade. (Sorry, faithful box of Cascade. Time to go!)
Seventh Generation also made the list of best conventional laundry detergents. Bonus: It costs 5 cents less per load than one type of Tide. So much for the I-want-to-buy-eco-products-but-they’re-too-expensive excuse.
