Free & Clear Lemon Essence Dishwasher Detergent Gel

Breakdown

3 ingredients to avoid

Cascade Free & Clear Lemon Essence Dishwasher Detergent Gel scores 15/100 on Tallow — our avoid band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

Cascade Free & Clear Lemon Essence Dishwasher Detergent Gel lists 14 ingredients, starting with Water, Sodium Bicarbonate, Tetrasodium Glutamate Diacetate, Copolymer of Acrylic Maleic and Sulphonic Acids and Peg/Ppg/Propylheptyl Ether. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 15/100 Cascade Free & Clear Lemon Essence Dishwasher Detergent Gel scores worse than most dishwasher detergent we have scored. A higher-scoring option in dishwasher detergent is Molly's Suds Dish Detergent Powder Unscented at 100/100.
