Does anyone else....

That was meant to be italics.

I got some of the liquid from Aldi - and I have froth. And a clean sink.

I think the scum is actually greasy....what's the point of that, when you're supposed to be =removing- grease?

Is there anyone talking on Mumsnet about this?
Or anywhere else?
I'm finding the scum very annoying. My sink hasn't needed much cleaning, now it does.

Mini I bet your water is soft though

I use Fairy liquid here in Northumberland and it's fine. No change in the foam quality at all, and a little goes a long way.

Yes, I was wondering about the water.

I think I will try the Aldi liquid, since we have one here now.

anno, I've looked at Thames Water online but if they have changed their water at all, they are not letting on!

Obviously there is something going on with the washing up liquid though!

I use Aldi's own. It's great.

Adding some soda crystals to your washing up as well as Fairy (or whatever) will increase its effectiveness. On some pans I only use soda crystals. I also use them in the washing-machine instead of detergent. They clean clothes and keep the machine clean.

Ali am finding the same with Fairy Liquid, and you need to use much more!
Definitely must be a change in what’s in these things.

But you don’t need the bubbles.....

I’m finding the same and the water here is pretty much neutral. Aldi’s premium brand and Morrison’s seem the best.

We have noticed a big change in all types of washing up liquid both cheaper ones and the premium brands .
The water goes all horrible and you have to use a lot more than you used to do . I think they must be using horrible palm oil and cheaper " ingredients "
It's all about the money in everything.

Has there been a change in your water supply, Alie? I know it's quite hard in your part of the world already. Here, because of possible water shortage this summer, they have combined our nice soft water supply with water from a nearby borehole which has made it harder than usual.

I always buy Fairy but it lasts me a long time as I the dishwasher a lot. Dishwasher tablets vary a lot. I buy the expensive ones but try to stock up when they are on offer.

I use Sainsbury’s sensitive one for the sake of my hands but despite using the dishwasher too I seem to get through loads of it... mainly ‘cos I’m trying in vain to get it to froth up.

No I use 59p from the pound shop and it’s fine ?
