Lemon Multi-Surface Cleaner

Breakdown

7 ingredients to avoid

Formula 409 Lemon Multi-Surface Cleaner 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.

Formula 409 Lemon Multi-Surface Cleaner lists 10 ingredients, starting with Water, Lauramine Oxide, Ethanolamine, Alkyl(C12-16)Dimethylbenzylammonium Chloride and Myristamine Oxide. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 15/100 Formula 409 Lemon Multi-Surface Cleaner scores worse than most all-purpose cleaner we have scored. A higher-scoring option in all-purpose cleaner is Dealworthy Multi-Purpose Cleaning Vinegar Unscented at 97/100.
