I think it a cheap detergent/cleaner. So cheap, that it gets put in everything without thought. Companies that use this gunk in their products obviously :
1) have not done any research into the effect of this crap.
2) don’t care if they harm anyone
3) don’t want my business, which is fine by me.

The reason it is used so much, in so many products, is because it abundant and its cheap. Just like mercury!

I avoid it like the plague.
