Earlier this year we told you about these naturally abrasive scrubber and pads made of recycled corn cobs, peach pits, & walnut shells. Unfortunately they were only available in the UK, but now these cool scrubs are available at a number of retailers.
Goodbye Detergent! comes in the Original Spaghetti Scrubs (corn cobs and peach pits), Kitchen Cleaning Pads (walnut shells, recycled plastic, and non-woven nylon) and Outdoor Scouring Pads (walnut shells). Each product is available in varying hardness depending on your needs and there are also multiple pads for different kitchen materials.
Goodbye Detergent! is now available at Amazon and Uncommon Goods, but check out the Goodbye Detergent! website for the full listing.

I've seen these @ Central Market (austin) for a couple of months now...I'm still trying to decide if I want to try them, though.
I'm excited about these! I can't wait to try them; they'll make my dishwater into instant compost without the soap to worry about.
It's great that they use some natural materials, but if you look at the fine-print, they're not biodegradable, they contain polyester. They're also made in Japan, which means they have a pretty big carbon footprint by the time they get to you in the US.
I really want to like this product, but looking closely at their product details, I feel like this is a bit greenwashed. It sounds like a solid scrubber, but "Goodbye Detergent!" is a bit of a misnomer since grease won't scrub away with just water, regardless of how hard you scrub. And it's claim for lack of mold, bacteria, and smell depend on its fast drying capabilities. I do like the versatility of the product, and its many uses (peeling vegetables! Well, I never...)
