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?
We don’t have a NOVA classification on file for dawn yet, so the processing axis scores it neutrally.
How does dawn compare to other dishwasher detergent?
At 15/100 dawn scores worse than most dishwasher detergent we have scored.
Is dawn organic?
dawn is not certified organic in our data.
Has dawn been lab tested?
Not yet. No independent lab has published results for dawn, so its score is based on its ingredient list, processing and packaging alone.
