What detergent is this?

Question

I was wondering if anyone perhaps knew what type of detergent this was. Granted I don't have much information on it since the lady wasn't to forthcoming with the info, haha. I was at the laundry mat washing some comforters of mine in the 60 lb load washing machine and this little old Chinese woman started washing some comforters in the same type of washing machines. While I had to use two cups of detergent she pulled out a little ziploc bag and put two spoonfuls of soap! I thought it couldn't nearly be enough but low and behold it made just as much suds as my soap did. I asked her what kind of soap it was but she told me its her friends..haha. It was white soap a little more granular then generic powder soap with pink specs. If anyone knows it would be great!

Answer 4

I'm not sure, but there is a great GREAT laundry soap called Charlie's Soap that you can get at Whole Foods and online.  For a regular load of clothes, you only use about 1 TBSP.  It cleans clothes great, rinses out completely, and doesn't leave fragrances on your clothes.  It's also septic safe
