    ivory soap & Dr Bronners are not completly organic. its almost impossible to get of list of ivory ingredients and totally impossible to get an ingredient list for Arm & Hammer products other than washing & baking soda. they are allowed to print natual or organic if they have some natural or organic compounds, but they are processed with chemicals & have preservatives.

    Carmen, you are right that all ingredients are not 100% organic. By law, some of the ingredients can’t be certified anyway. I typically don’t use Ivory myself, but prefer my homemade soap (which is organic) or Dr. Bronners soap bars. Other than Washing and Baking Soda, I don’t recommend most Arm and Hammer products. Thanks for the comment.
