Common questions

Is dawn healthy?

dawn 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.

What is in dawn?

dawn lists 13 ingredients, starting with Water, Dipropylene Glycol Butyl Ether, Lauryl Glucoside, Hexyl Ethoxylate and Tetrasodium Glutamate Diacetate. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

Does dawn contain seed oils?

No. Nothing in dawn’s ingredient list matches a seed oil — canola, soybean, corn, cottonseed, grapeseed, sunflower, safflower, rice bran or peanut oil, or an unspecified "vegetable oil".

How processed is dawn?

dawn has no NOVA group. Tallow works NOVA out from the ingredient list, and it does not apply to supplements or non-food products; a food whose ingredients are not all classified yet stays unknown instead of being guessed. Either way the processing axis scores it neutrally.

How does dawn compare to other dish soap?

At 15/100 dawn scores worse than most dish soap we have scored. A higher-scoring option in dish soap is Meliora Cleaning Products Plastic-Free Dish Soap Lemon at 96/100.
