Long has been my struggle in trying to find an automatic dishwasher detergent that 1) I can ethically feel good about and 2) actually cleans the dishes! I’ve gone through half a dozen brands with unsatisfactory results – and there really aren’t too many non-toxic dish detergents out there to begin with!
