It's only a short section, so I have copied out word for word (as mentioned about this is authored by Matt Haig and NOT me). R.M.Gow's-powerful,hardworking washing powder which gives you real value for money.-I kid you not that entire sentence was its full name. For a real taste of home, browse our Puddings and Desserts section and get tempted by all of the delicious food that you could have delivered to your door. Remember Angel Delight? Nothing could taste more nostalgic than this lovely whipped dessert and we sell so many different flavours! Ambrosia Devon Custard is another family favourite along with Ambrosia Semolina, Ambrosia Creamed Rice, Ambrosia Rice Pudding and Ambrosia Tapioca (remember that from school lunches?!). For that special occasion you will probably do what we do in the UK and go to your higher end supermarket to get that lovely treat to make your day. We recommend the fabulous Marks and Spencer Salted Caramel Sauce to add that special something to your ice cream or their White Chocolate Fudge Sauce - a real favourite of our grandchildren! Waitrose too can offer you those sweet treats - try their Seriously Chocolatey Dipping Sauce which is simply heavenly! Radion's story is featured in a book I have called "brand failures - the truth about the 100 biggest branding mistakes of all time" authored by Matt Haig.

Persil and Daz - Family cleaning, Mum knows best, WHITENESS. Adverst centred around cleanliness and family. It actually went in as a competitor to Ariel as it not only washed biologically and targeted stains but also odours. Radion had extra ingredients to Persil and was around IIRC 20p a box more expensive. It was also slightly more expensive than Ariel. In 2013, the regulator issued a proposed rule asking manufacturers to provide it with data on the safety and effectiveness of ingredients like triclosan and triclocarban, including clinical studies showing these products were superior to non-antibacterial washes in preventing human illness or reducing infection.

I forgot about Clorox Detergent. I was working in the LA area and apparently it was past test market but not national so every time i went to California, I would stuff some boxes in my luggage. I still have one box left securely wrapped in plastic. It was a pretty good product and low sudsing to boot with a great fragrance.

The FDA's proposed rule came after data suggested that long-term exposure might lead to bacterial resistance or have hormonal effects. Research by the Environmental Working Group, an advocacy group, found companies using triclosan — which is also used as a pesticide — in many soaps and even in toothpaste. She used Dove dish detergent and Cascade dishwasher detergent, but of course Cascade is still going strong!Downy (P&G) was top selling premium FS on US market with Final Touch (Lever Bros.) second in sales. Balance of market was made up of lesser brands such as Lavender Sachet with Sta-Puf dead last (barely one percent market share). Would like to know about any discontinued detergents, additives, stain sprays etc that you remember which are now discontinued,here is my list. Surf and Bold, marketed as cleaning well on the whole wash and costing a little less, not specifically aimed at any market group but definitely VFM. Wisk-I know is available in US but only lasted a short time here, funny Mum liked it had a built in deodorizer from memory. Frank, I SOOO remember one of the neighbors "throwing" water on the clothes, rolling them up, placing them in her refrigerator and waiting for an employment agency "domestic" to come do her ironing.
