Being a germaphobe, I've used Dial anti-bacterial hand soap religiously for years (there's a difference between soap and anti-bacterial soap, in case you didn't know). My wife is pregnant right now so we're trying to be extra clean from a sanitary stand point to avoid any issues there.

Well I started making our weekly grocery list today and noticed everyone around me is out of anti-bacterial soap right now and had to resort to buying bulk from Amazon. Even on Amazon, 9/10 of those types of items are out of stock and I had to search for 20 minutes before I found fricking hand and bar anti-bacterial soap that wasn't $100!

This shite is out of control. Have people NOT been using anti-bacterial soap to wash their hands and shower/bathe with all this time or something??? That's fricking gross.

My brother is a sales rep for GermX. He said, at this pace he will break 800k in commission alone.

ETA: he already hit his year end quota

so you're doing what every other person in panic is doing yet blaming everyone else cause you got the "my wife is pregnant" card.

Narrator: There's no difference

Ok, for the naysayers

The United States FDA: "there's no difference."

Did you look at dish soap?
There is antibacterial dish soap that you could wash your hands with

I only use antibacterial dish soap & hand soap

According to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), there isn’t enough science to show that over-the-counter (OTC) antibacterial soaps are better at preventing illness than washing with plain soap and water. To date, the benefits of using antibacterial hand soap haven’t been proven. In addition, the wide use of these products over a long time has raised the question of potential negative effects on your health.


The FDA says otherwise.

Anti-bacterial soap does not kill viruses . . . if it did it would be anti-viral soap.

It is no better than regular soap.

Add to the fact that it is probably damaging to your health and the environment to be using anti-bacterial soap.

I wanted one bottle the other night. No such luck. You're right, it is ridiculous.

This is no bullshite.

My mom told me several years ago when I was a kid, it would be cold outside and I would be out there with short sleeves... sometimes shorts (I guess it was maybe those days where it was warmer in the morning then got cold??).. Rolling around with in the grass, dirt with other kids who didn't care what they had one..

But this person related to me who had kids my age.. She would bundle her kids up, wouldn't let them go anywhere if it got a little cold.. Kept them away from anything that "had germs", etc..

You know what kids were always sick? Catch colds, etc, etc.. The kids whose bodies didn't have as good of a chance to build a stronger immune system.

I used sanitizer and clorox wipes, but this is honestly the main reason.. One time someone told me that this person I would see from time to time and shake hands with, never washed his hands after pissing. Not sure if they were fricking with me But something about that idea freaks me the frick out. How many people's hands have I shook that were just shaking some drips off their dick, didn't wash them and then came around shaking people's hands?

You better buy some soap to clean your soap before you use it.

That's correct. But the difference doesn't help you and there's a possibility the anti-bacterial soap may actually be more harmful.

When is the left going to wake up and start shaming China for eating raw lizard tongues and tiger penises?

It is not hard to make your own soap. One batch lasts me 6 months
