I cook my bacon in the oven on racks. After I pour my grease up and use a spatula to get the grease left in the pan out I still have a greasy pan. Then I wash my greasy pan with Pure Ivory bar soap. I have zero grease left on my pan. I used to buy dish washing liquid. I ran out one day and had no way to get to the store. I used my bar soap that I kept in the kitchen to wash my hands. I no longer buy dish washing liquid. Boy have I saved a lot of money.❤❤❤😃😃😃
Thank you for the tip. Awesome.
My grandma used to wash dishes this way. She lived to 100 !
Yes. ..my grandmother taught me this too.. .works great and save $$$
I’m adding Ivory bar soap to my grocery list!
Fun to think I can wash my face and a greasy pan with the same product!💜
I will keep that in mind for back stock. Thanks
I personally have used Dawn for years and love it.
I love Ivory. I grew up with my mom using Ivory. My husband grew up with his mom using Dawn. It’s hard to find Ivory where we live, so we use Dawn most of the time. What I also like about Ivory is my hands don’t get super dried out when using it like they do with other brands.
A good test would be to clean the grill off a bbq cooker. Baked on grease
Dawn platinum for the win in my opinion. No grease, keeps my drains from getting clogged with grease(no I don’t put grease down the drain). Every time I switch brands of soap after a few weeks my drains start running slow just from washing things like your bacon pan.
7 pounds of bacon? My husband would have thought he died and went to heaven! 😂
#BACONHEIMER
I'm with your husband lol!!!
They change the formula od dawn dish soap not like it used to be
The formula was changed during the pandemic. The label no longer touted the wonderful degreasing capabilities, just "less scrubbing."
The Platinum iteration claims degreasing properties, but is significantly more expensive. I did buy one small bottle (stacked discounts to bring the price in line with regular Dawn). It worked as well as the original Dawn formula, but not worth the additional cost IMHO.
Other options are available at a much better price point!
Thank you! I've been thinking the same thing. It doesn't even smell the same to me. It smells really cheap.
Andmuch more water, just in tne last few months.
New Dawn stinks so bad. I got nauseated and threw it away.
Ivory is awesome stuff!!! We love it. Used it in the NICU for washing breastfeeding/pumping components. It doesn’t dry out my hands nearly as much as other dish soap. Love it.
BTW if u spray Pam or some type of cooking spray it helps to keep so much from coating the pan n u get to add all that to ur drippings if u save it like I do. It doesn't keep all from sticking but alot of it.
Also if u are boiling ANYTHING thats starchy or that u know is apt to boil over spray cooking spray around the rim of ur pot or take a paper towel or cloth n use ur cooking oil n dampen it with the oil n wipe the rim n IT WILL NOT BOIL OVER. I have never hD potatoes or pasta boil over even on high it will not if you wipe or spray the rim about a half an inch to an inch.
Just thought I'd share that nugget. I don't remember who told me but it's like 2nd nature to do that when I'm cooking.
Thanks for that tip.
What I found with Dawn over the last couple of years is that it seemed fine in the beginning of washing my dishes but as I got nearer the end it just wasn’t cutting it and my dishes were feeling a bit greasy after I washed them and I was having to add more Dawn. This didn’t happen a few years ago. Thats why I felt that they weren’t making it as concentrated so they could sell you the newer Dawn products. Rather than just using the products on one item it could be a matter of how long the product will last in water after washing a few dishes. I don’t have that problem with Palmolive ultra and I can even use less.
I have noticed that too. It used to work great but lately it's not as good or long lasting.
Shake the bottle before each use.
I’m going to give Palmolive a try.
@@teenawillis682 It’s regular Dawn dishwashing liquid. Shaking doesn’t do anything.
I love it when you do comparison tests.
Looks like you won't have to buy dish soap until Christmas 2025 lol
Somethings I want change, and I will keep my real dawn.
I learned from a frugal person to put a couple of drops of Dawn in a spray bottle and use it to clean your house. I have done this for years. A bottle of Dawn cleans everything and costs pennies when using it in a spray bottle with water. I will continue to use Dawn or a nice generic version of it.
I do this. It’s my go to all purpose cleaner. It smells good too.
The last time you tried this I commented that I soak a dirty pan in hot water while I did the rest of the dishes and then it was way to clean the dirty pan. I still like Dawn because I use it to get spots off of clothes, too. Sometimes I miss a spot on a shirt or other piece of clothing and it gets washed. Often the spot is still there. I use Dawn and a very large percent of the time the spot is gone in the second wash.😊 I don't go to Walmart. Not a nice place here.
I love Ivory. That's all I've used for years. I also put it in squirt bottles (like soft soap) and use it in my bathrooms.
I wash my dogs with Ivory sometimes
Can you describe how you make it into soft soap? Thank you!🙂
I also use dish soap in my bathroom foam dispensers. I use distilled water, which keeps it from getting yucky and gross over time. I just eyeball it but use a bit more distilled water than soap, so it doesn’t clog up the foaming mechanism- something like two parts distilled water to one part soap. If I feel that it’s not soapy enough, I’ll add a bit more soap. Just keep the liquid below the foaming mechanism, to keep it working correctly.
I definitely agree using the pump helps save soap!!! I found that out only a few years ago, lol, after 20 years buying my own dish soap. I use the Walmart brand. I use to try Ajax but I ended up using so much soap that it didn't seem worth it.
I like your tests. But, my situation is that I am allergic to most of the dish soaps I try. Ivory is the worst for me. I break out and my skin hurts and itches and is red. Dawn does not irritate my skin.
Baking soda and vinegar is a great option.
I’m hella allergic to Ivory, too. I think it has coconut in it.
Grease up a plastic container. Plastic is hard to decrease.
We haven’t had the luck with the wm brand. We always go back to Dawn. Our water is on the hard side.
I still love using the baking soda and Dawn combo paste when I do dishes. I keep a little jar of it under my counter at all times. GREAT!!!!!
Thank you for doing these videos. It has been eye opening. I always use Dawn but I’m going to switch to the Walmart brand. Thank you again❤
An interesting, informative video from your Research and Development lab!💜
What I've found with the cheaper soaps is...you end up using more because they are thinner and not as concentrated.
I made your Cheeseburger Rolls last night, I believe it is in Dining #1 and it was amazing. I am making Ham Casserole tonight! I love your electric skillet! I just bought my husband a new one for his birthday. He is the bacon cooker king, and I'm the cleaning the pan queen. lol

Could see the Results better
Regarding dish soap. I have a sensitivity to a lot of products …. bath soap-laundry soap-fabric softener-air freshener-cologne’s and much, much more …. Lately my hands started itching something awful when I did dishes, my husband brought home the ivory dish soap and no more itching. I have used Palmolive for decades but not anymore.
Side note - the Ivory even cuts grease in cold water as I spend a lot of time in my kitchen, I always have dish water ready so I can wash up as I go. Now I don’t have to empty and refill the sink nearly as often, saving water and dish soap. WIN WIN !
I really appreciate these types of videos!
There you go waRshing again.😋
That’s how my Bubbe used to say it. So I love love love that about Tawra… Just sayin. My Bubbe stepped up for me after my mom passed (single mom) when I was only sixteen. Then Bubbe got diagnosed with terminal cancer my senior year. She still showed up for me. Bubbe passed shortly after I turned eighteen. So yeah I love that Tawra says “waRshcloth.” And adds an R to wash.
You do a wonderful job...I usuallly use wal-mart brand and have for over ten years...I enjoy watching your videos and I am a huge fan!!!!!!!!
Love this! So helpful to know which soap is the best value! Thanks for the comprehensive testing, and Mike, thanks for eating all that bacon for the team!
I was laughing with you when the pan came so clean with water lol😊
Hot water works the same way on cast iron frying pans.
Now try mixing clothes detergent with water and washing dishes. I've been using Dawn and Palmolive but I use them sparingly. Immediately after I take my meat out of the pan I put some detergent and water in the pan and put the lid on and let it sit awhile and later go back and wash the pan. If I have a greasy bowl, I put a little soap and water and heat water and add to it and it get the grease to "melt". Good demonstration !
I like you doing these videos. It helps me to think about what I am buying. I also liked your video on the pink stuff. I have never tried that product.
That was a surprise, Tawra. I use Dawn about 2/3 Dawn to 1/3 water that I put in a smaller bottle, and I have been pleased with the results. I use my dish washer once a week, for the dishes and I have enough to last about a week unless I have company. I rarely put my pots and pans in the dishwasher, I do them by hand. This was a neat experiment. Thanks for sharing. Have a Blessed day.
I adore you guys❤ thanks for the laugh on the bacon🤣🤣
Tawra and Mike, I enjoy watching your testing products videos. ❤
I've used Ivory for years. Some of the others make my hands break out. I enjoy your show, from Northwestern Montana.
I'm so enjoying these comparasion videos!
I use Blue Dawn...only. Concentrated is best in the big Sams Club jug, because you only need a tiny pump for several loads of dishes. (We have no mechanical dishwasher, all are hand washed). That spray dawn is totally different than true 'Blue Dawn' despite the color.
A big reason for our absolute loyalty to blue Dawn is because we have a lot of animals on this little homestead, as well as plants grown without pesticides.
We live near the source point of the Enbridge Kalamazoo River Oil Spill and were involved in the early stages of disaster response. Only Blue Dawn for those poor creatures that were covered in tar sands oil. Its safer for use on animals if a grease cutter must be used.
Finally, blue dawn makes a wonderful spray for aphids and plant pests. A tiny drop in a spray bottle and you have a very effective insecticidal soap. Do NOT use the premade spray for this, it will defoliate your entire plant.
I use dawm , vinagar and water in a bottle. Works fantastic.
I too use this formula for many household cleaning jobs. 😊
Keep the reviews coming. This was great.
Switched to Dawn about 10 years ago and loved it but over the last 3-4 years I have noticed that it does not rinse as cleanly and as easily as it did when I first started using it. It seems to take longer to rinse the soap film away. I'm not sure whether to attribute that to a change in our city owned water system or a change in Dawn's formula. I bought in bulk so when the Dawn runs out, I'll be looking into the Ivory and also checking to see if a little watering down will decrease the cost.
I makemuown dawn powerwash. I bought it once for the bottle then took the top of and put in about 1/4 cup of dish soap 1/2 cup ogf alcohol and the rest water. Does a fabulous job.
I love the spray Dawn. It cleans my pans and shines up my stainless steel sink.
I wipe my greasy pans with a paper towel. Then set them in sink, fill with real hot water and let em soak. Easy peasy.
Love these kind of videos!
I tried Brillo Dishwashing Spray and it is wonderful for cleansing and removing grease from pots and pans and plastic. I think it works as well or better than Dawn Platinum. Purchased at Dollar Tree so the price is right but, there is a downside. The spray nozzle and trigger is flimsy and I had to check the bottles prior to purchase because some were broken. Also, it's difficult to find so I'm not sure this will become a regular Dollar Tree item. When I see it, I stock up.
Enjoyed watching your comparison. I think I'll try Ivory (bar soap) and Wal-mart's dish liquid. Thank you.
I have ajax, Palmolive, dawn and dawn platinum. In my opinion the dawn platinum is by far the best. You only use a fraction of the amount of the other ones, so it's cheaper too. ( I stocked up at Costco when it was on sale). Unfortunately, I didn't realize how little soap you use with it, and got way more than I needed. I'm now working my way through the other brands that I can go through it faster, so I don't have so many bottles of dish soap in the house.
U may could add a tiny bit of dawn to the cheaper dish detergent?? It may clean a Lil better n ho further? Just a thought. ME being me I would try it. Lol
I mean add it to the water not the bottle of other detergent but hey that might work too.
I might try that. I actually put my dish soap in a glass soap dispenser. It wouldn't be hard to mix them. Thanks for the idea!
Blue Dawn is the best! If it's too greasy I'll spray a little 409 on it too!
I enjoy these videos very much!
That is amazing the difference in dish soap thanks we learn a lot
This was very good. I'm finding that neither Dawn or Palmolive are so good at removing chicken fat residue. Maybe I'd get an Ivory to try and keep just for the fatty foods.
They do. Just let the soap sit for a little while more than usual.
I have to watch soaps for allergies. I easily get rashes from chemicals. I'm also sensitive to scents. Can't do Dawn. Any antibacterial soaps are an automatic no go. Lately I've been buying Palmolive's free and clear version.
But the clam for dawn also is its safer than other dish soaps. Gentle even for your pets.. But great video
That is ok if u have soft water. We in East TN have very hard water. Yes I know the difference.
You are right there. The water has a lot to do with it. I have soft water too.
I cleared a clog in my toilet with a cup of Dawn and a very small bottle of vinegar. I had to let it sit overnight but it did the job. Btw, I read of another home remedy and that was to let a dishwasher pod sit in a pan over night with some water for baked on caked on food and you don't have to scrub anything in the am, it just comes right off. I have not tried that yet.
Love the comparison tests! Surprised every time.
I think Dawn, Gain and Ivory are all the same formula just marketed differently with different scents. Dawn is the tried-and-true dish soap that 'magically removes all grease', Gain is marketed for the original gain scent lovers, and Ivory is more marketed as gentle on your hands with no dyes and a light scent. I personally love using Ivory for the scent alone and I think it works great! :)
Oh my, Tawra. Before you have make-up on, at the beginning of this video? You are a “twin” to a close friend of mine. Even your facial expressions, voice and gestures are identical! Rose’s ethnic heritage is Irish/German. She raised 12 children and homeschooled them all. Since my friend has relatives in northern Kansas, who knows?You may truly be related! ❤😇
LOL my family is German and from Kansas too. :-) We are probably cousins!
Ach du. No wonder you’re frugal! 😀😎
Great video!
The green scrubby part of the sponge cleans everything very well. Maybe just use the yellow sponge side next time
I have a big sam's size of Dawn Platinum that will take me 3 years to use up. LOL I love these videos! I would like to see you do more natural brands like 7th Generation or Method because I think that stuff is a scam. 😄I was surprised by Ivory and would probably consider buying it on sale with a coupon. ;)
I use Ivory but sometimes can't find it and then Dawn is my go to.
We have soap pump that has a bottle under the sink. We just recently upgraded to a longer hose and an old vinegar jug filled with soap so now we use that to pump out soap. It lasts forever because it’s one gallon and we don’t use much anyway. I do run the dishwasher about every other day and am using up dishwasher packs that I got for free over a year ago. Still have about 200 of those left!
Oh that's a great idea!! I'm using that for my new sink. I hate refilling that thing!
I use dawn and l love it.
I just use the cap to measure dish soap. 1 capful in a sink of hot water is plenty
I would think that's too much, don't waste
@@sandraking9650 one capful equals about a measuring teaspoon full. I hardly think that is too much
😂 Mike is so funny.
You can do that with any pan while it’s still warm or hot
A drop or two of dawn or ivory in a spray bottle filled with water is good on spider mites mealy bug on your plants. . Dawn of you have continually stinky body part. It's suppose to help with that just have to leave it on until your almost done.
My cabinets are the same color as yours.
I like regular Dawn and next Gain, and will honest and tell you I have never tried the Great Value Blue that you love so much. But the Palmolive, and others, I don't care for, they are too thin and don't hold the suds or have the strength in my opinion. Of them all, I like the smell of the Ivory best, but I don't think it did a great job. You can't always find Ivory either.
Well one thing I learned is that you won't have to buy any dish soap for a few years! LOL. I personally use dawn, but have tried all the others in the past.
he rubbed the ajax with his thumb and then used the same thumb to rub the ivory. The ivory looked the cleanest on camera.
To have a controlled study you need to use a fresh cloth for each soap.
Regular Dawn and regular Palmolive are my faves.
I use the Walmart Dish liquid, it works great on our dishes.
Love the testing thank you
I usually just put a little on my dish cloth
I don't know about Dawn anymore. But I am going to use something else from now on. They have changed the scent with a new one and I hate it makes me nauseous. I just want original dawn back or not at all.
I am really enjoying the reviews that you are doing, thanks.
I usually soak my pans in hot water to make cleaning easy then use Ivory, Dawn or Walmart. I love Ivory for my hands but can't always find it and if I need to watch pennies I use Walmart. Have Dawn now because couldn't find Ivory when I moved here.
Can you give us your homemade soap recipe, please?
Im all about my dawn 🥰
You two are so funny 😅!
I never use dish soap out of a big squeeze bottle...too much comes out in one squeeze and it's wasted....also that big squeeze makes the water too soapy...I put mine in a pump too or short of that in a small squeese bottle..it really does last longer. I keep a small squeeze bottle of Original Dawn under my bathroom sink..one or two drops in some hot water cleans my hair brushes and combs...I let them soak for an hour or longer and they rinse clean. I have a nightguard I have to wear to protect my crowns and the instructions from my dentist say to use literally one drop of Dawn to brush the guard. Most of our dishes go in the dishwasher but I run a sinkful of hot soapy water to wipe down the counters. For that I use the Aldi blue dish soap..it's cheap (or it was before shrinkflation) and does a good enough job so I can save the 'good stuff' for the heavy duty grease etc..Plus my husband washed dishes often and he puts way too much in..I've showed him how much to use, but he 'forgets', HA. I do love Dawn best and have found that even though it costs more per unit I use far less of it which is a savings in the long run for me.
The saying goes "the magic is in the motion- not the potion"
S little dawn will do ya@
Ive been buying the largest ajax lemon or orange scented using coupons
What’s the best antibacterial dish soap?
Save the cheap stuff for the non greasy stuff.
Mmm, Bacon with Peanut Butter and Syrup is Awesomely Delicious.
Mmm
How have I never tried this concoction 😮. Will be trying for breakfast in the morning 😁😊
My mom used ivory for years. She wouldn’t use anything else.
You won't need to by dish soap for a while. Lol
Is there a video or recipe for the homemade dish soap? Thanks in advance.
But let your rags set overnight and smell the one with ajax.
And smell the others.
Rerun
Maybe I'll just use water!!
I use the Walmart brand all the time. I buy the huge container and it lasts me months.
Can’t believe you dumped grease down the sink!
If it's safe enough for animals that get coated in oil spills etc I "trust" it at home. But I've always been a Dawn person too. Thank u for all u guys do Tawra. I just ordered ur original cookbook n can't wait to get it.
