This article kind of glosses over some of the tougher parts of their origin story. I saw a documentary about Dr. Bronner's on, I think, Netflix perhaps 7 years ago and it talked about how their dad, the company's founder, was essentially an absentee father because he was off preaching his self styled religion and making soap. Apparently he also spent some number of years in an insane asylum in IL before heading out to California as I recall. Love the product, don't feel like this article does their origin story justice. Edit: looks like it isn't on Netflix streaming any more but I think it was called, "Dr. Bronner's Magic Soap Box" [0] [0] https://dvd.netflix.com/Movie/Dr-Bronner-s-Magic-Soapbox/70073552 https://dvd.netflix.com/Movie/Dr-Bronner-s-Magic-Soapbox/700...
