hi, i’m victoria from sfgirlbybay, and if you read my blog you may already know, my dog lucy is a rescue dog — meaning i adopted her from the Northern California Family Dog Rescue. i like to think lucy rescued me just as much as i rescued her! miss lucy stole my heart one day when i saw her on facebook. she was living on the streets in kern county, which is hard for me to imagine, until she was picked up and sent to the local shelter, where only 13% of the dogs there are adopted and survive. even though she’d been on her own, was malnourished and filthy she still had a heart full of joy when i met her. for me, rescue dogs are the most deserving as well as the most grateful dogs around. lucy is a mystery mutt, but really more of a sweet muppet who gives me nothing but love and companionship. i think miss lucy deserves to be a little spoiled, and i try to do that each and every day.
to support the ASPCA’S cause and highlight method’s policy against animal testing, method and soap.com are teaming up create a photo contest on Facebook, as well as Instagram. you can simply upload a photo of your pet to the Facebook photo contest app, or take an instagram of your fuzzy friend and hashtag it #methodcutepets. method will choose a winner each week! also, method will donate 15% of method product sales* on soap.com in june to the ASPCA, whose mission is to provide effective means for the prevention of cruelty to animals throughout the United States.
i hope you’ll join us in supporting the ASPCA and share your cute pet pics with us!
the smartest smarty dish yet.
posted April 24, 2013 by meagan |
getting your dishes sparkling clean is no small feat. just ask anyone who has encountered that pesky, chalky film that happens in hard water areas. here’s the good news: we’ve recently developed some new, natural technologies that actually work. take that, hard water.
for years, we’ve been making smarty dish®, a little tablet that packs a big punch against stuck-on food. but in areas with excessively-mineralized water, we needed something stronger. we needed to call in the big guns, so to speak.
we’re exceedingly proud of what we created in our lab. smarty dish® plus puts the smack down on hard water and tough stains. even better? it’s plant-based, which means it won’t hurt the environment.
“in developing smarty dish® plus, we used a new hard water control agent derived from yeast that isn’t widespread in the industry. it’s one of the most sustainable ingredients we’ve ever used,” explains fred, our green chef who developed the technology. after smarty dish® plus does its job cleaning dishes, it’s readily degradable. EDTA (an ingredient found in many traditional dishwasher detergents) carries metals into the environment in a cumulative fashion, making them available to the food chain – think mercury in fish.
so what’s in this remarkable little guy? we call it “triple action power”. allow me to explain:
detergent: it dissolves sticky food like a dream. plus, it’s naturally-derived and EDTA-free, so it won’t harm the fishes.
rinse aid: smarty dish® plus has a rinse-aid built in. genius, right?
hard water resistance: polymers made from chicory starch disperse hard water deposits so they don’t end up on your dishes. in fact, we’ve found the formula to be effective in resisting over 95% of hard water in the US.
you can find smarty dish® plus right here or at most Target stores.
