Toxic Toilet, No More! More on Method-Love

Method, the people against dirty have done it again! They've released a new toilet bowl cleaner, Lil' Bowl Blue, and it's companion bathroom scrubbing cleaner Le Scrub The products use lactic acid from plants instead of the traditional phosphoric and sulfuric acid used by most bathroom cleaners. So for those of us who don't want battery acid near our naked heiny's, we've finally got some good options!

Personally I had been using Method's tub & tile spray, and I found that it does the job only if your tub is already marginally clean. No reasonably procrastinating cleaner can say that, so I need the extra scrubbing action that Le Scrub can provide. The Lil' Bowl Blue also has xantham gum to thicken the mixture so that it will stick to the walls of the toilet, much like conventional blue toilet cleaners. Plus, those bottles are the most appealing designs of Method bottles to date, and now they're using 100% recycled plastic!

Except of course, on the new improved Omop packaging, which has 50% bamboo, so now you can compost it with your Omop corn fiber sweeping pads. I just love it when there is an environmentally friendly way to part me with my money!

If we're ever going to stop ourselves from causing 66% of streams to have disinfectants, then we're going to have to make environmentalism accessable to the average consumer. Even boomers who don't believe in climate change (hi, mom!) can make environmentally improved choices with Method.
