You jest, but there's a ton of people convinced they can use rock alum which is natural and so is better than industrial deodorants which contain aluminium.

- kajecounterhack 1y agoI'm similarly puzzled by "uncured bacon" which afaik still uses naturally occurring nitrites. How they're allowed to call it uncured when it's clearly still cured is beyond me.
- PaulHoule 1y agoI can't use those aluminum containing antiperspirants at all -- they violently irritate my eyes if I put them on my skin.
- johnyzee 1y agoThe rock alum works better, and I don't think you can get it into a different form. The stuff in deodorant is a different aluminium compound.
