Dr. Bonner's Magic "All-One." and Netflix

Thank you Netflix.

Actually before I explain why I am grateful to Netflix or what Netflix has to do with Dr. Bonner's Magic "All-One" I must, for the benefit of the FTC and total disclosure, state thatI HAVE NOT, DO NOT, NOR WILL I PROBABLY EVER RECEIVE ANY COMPENSATION FROM NETFLIX, DR. BONNER'S SOAP, OR ANYONE ELSE FOR ANY OPINIONS STATED IN THIS BLOG. Now if that's not clear enough then we really are doomed in this county.

What do Dr. Bonner's soap and Netflix have in common? A few weeks ago I was checking out the movies available on Netflix I came across a film entitled "Dr. Bronner's Magic Soapbox". Upon closer examination I was amused to see that it was about Dr. Bonner's soap. 25 years ago I used to use Dr. Bonner's soap all the time. I was very active in outdoor sports, hiking and kayaking, and Dr. Bonner's was the soap of choice among my peers. We could find it everywhere. Then I moved to South Florida and couldn't find Dr. Bonner's in the stores down there. This was pre-internet days so you couldn't just go online and find it. You were stuck with whatever the big corporate owned stores wanted t sell. So Dr. Bonner faded into past along with my beautiful blue kayak.

Fast forward many years and I am watching the video about Dr. Bonner's soap and the company that still operated by his son and grandsons. I was captivated by Ralph Bonner's stories and thrilled to learn that not only does this great company still exist but that it still adheres to the standards that sets it apart from every other company. Dr. Bonner's is a leader in environmental design, a leader in organic ingredients, and a leader in employee relations.

The day after viewing the video I found a bottle of Dr. Bronner's Magic Pure Castile Classic Soap at the Daily Co-op here in Athens. There were so many more scents to choose but I settled on peppermint since it was the one I always used in the past. I love the way it smells and the tingle I feel when I use it. I am so glad I found it because I love the way it makes my skin feel. I am hooked again.

Thank you Ralph Bonner for keeping your father's vision alive. Thank you everyone else at Dr. Bonner's for making excellent products. I look forward to trying all the other scents as well as all the other products you make.
