- duncanawoods 7y agoThanks, yep. They are not the primary ingredients which is probably why they can't call it a soap bar. Interestingly, the "Palm" in Napalm is also Sodium Palmitate.
- benj111 7y agoBut "Dove doesn't dry your skin like soap can" (uk advertising tagline) which would suggest it isn't soap.
- duncanawoods 7y agoA theseus ship type issue. As okcando says - it contains fatty acid salts which are what we call soap. However, lots of things contain these without becoming soap e.g. cheese and napalm so... yeah.
