      Unfortunately many cottage industries with centuries old roots were wiped away during the sustained craze in the last century over what the new 'wonder material' oil could be used for, and they are very hard to bring back when they have to compete for price, and when all the methods and supply chains are all but lost.
      The only possible hope is for national governments to start criminalising the damage these chemical companies inflict on the environment, thus forcing companies to develop alternatives, but it would have to happen in a country as large as China or India for it to make an impact on the direction we are headed.

I foresee China imposing a national ban on certain chemicals in the not-so-distant future, and the ripple effect of that on the economy forcing Western markets to adapt. It definitely won't be India. India, for all intents and purposes, is doing its best to join what we consider "The West," and they're only a couple decades away from that coming to fruition. China is the only powerful, rich country on Earth that makes large-scale decisions that blatantly go against the capitalist world order. I think, thankfully, the curse of capitalism is that it destroys the countries that indulge in it the most, so countries like America, Canada, Germany, UK, etc.... are effectively Potemkin states, a facade of a country that exists just so a handful of people can make money. China is the only major player where this is clearly not the case. I really hope their seeming sincerity remains a beacon of hope in this "Let's just destroy everything and deal with it later" hellhole of a nightmare world we're stuck in.

    could be great, but the video is missing an explanation of what the product actually can and can't do. you talked about very superficial tests about killing bacteria, but people normally clean with the primary intent of removing various types of visible dirt, and you didn't say anything about what this could do there. I know that that primary pineapple enzyme is great at destroying proteins, but that's quite different from the normal soap-based cleaning products that primarily dissolve fats in water. does the pineapple stuff also work for fats?
    also you called the product a "soap" after they added oils, but you don't get soap by mixing oils with acids, you get soap by mixing oils with bases.
    edit: read the other comments, feel dumb now for not realising that the stuff is vinegar. sure, vinegar has cleaning applications (though I absolutely despise the smell of normal vinegar used for cleaning), and if this process actually preserves the bromelain enzyme, that could make the pineapple vinegar more effective for some cleaning jobs than normal vinegar, since that stuff is really good at breaking down and dissolving proteins, which I believe are a category of substances that soaps tend to have a little bit of trouble with. but it would certainly not be a replacement for detergents, just a potentially better vinegar. and I don't see how it would be suitable for washing skin or accidental skin contact whatsoever, I don't want vinegar on my skin, and bromelain very noticeable attacks skin and mucous membranes whenever you cut or eat fresh pineapple.

      Most likely it's also got coconut-derived SDS or betaine in it as well. So you'd get enzymatic action, acidic pH, and suds for fats. It's a total solution that will attack protein-based stains, kill acid-susceptible bacteria, and wash away lipids as well.

    During first year of Covid lock down, I came across a recipe for an enzyme cleaner made of citrus peel, sugar, water. My impetus for making it was for my son's cat who kept having 'accidents'. I read only enzyme cleaner was the only way to get the smell out.
    Besides making a lot of bread, I made a lot of this cleaner. I still have some, lol. I use the cleaner for general use cleaning. It's excellent and SO cheap to make!

    Omg, this is what my mum's been home brewing for years with pineapple skin and even orange/mandarins skins too. She would use it for everything like wounds, cleaning etc. I honestly would roll my eyes and call it mum's potion because she hoards as it is and this is contributing to the hoarding. But I do agree it works for dishwashing liquid, cleans grease well. I don't agree with all the other stuff it does. But I guess there is truth to what she's been hyping over these years.

      @@heheneji I'm not a scientist or know the specifics of how things breakdown and what it would contain. But it's an alternative way she's found to repurpose fruit scrap from what would be thrown out as she usually takes it home from her work at the hospital as a chef there. I forgot to mention that she ferments alot of lemon skin too and adds a bit of eco dishwashing liquid to this too (which i found out later). So, in some way it works for her and she's found a way that makes her happy to repurpose something organic that would just got to waste. She's grown up not wasting anything. I'm all for it, if it helps the environment just maybe not the space for it. I don't know where she's found the recipe to do this but I assume CZcams or through buddhist monk that was shown in the clip.

    I am severely allergic to pineapple, its so bad that I break out in a rash if I just come into contact with it (let alone my reaction when I eat it)- this is amazing, just sucks I won't be able to use it, hopefully a different fruit comes around which is just as effective!

    • @fgallos
      @fgallos Před rokem +10

      Probably it won't provoke a rash on your skin, because the pineapple's organic components have been transformed into acetic acid, but they also put some other additives, so you could try a drop in your skin and check if there is a reaction.

    • @JustRaeesa
      @JustRaeesa Před rokem +17

      @Frederic Gallo i appreciate this! I'm still skeptical because the severity of my allergy has always surprised me- I once walked into a tea shop and immediately got a scratchy throat, watery eyes and was sneezing and coughing uncontrollably. I soon discovered one of the employees was holding pineapple tea and using a fan to spread the smell throughout the store causing my sudden reaction- so I'd also be concerned of any reaction to the scent in the soap as well. As soon as pineapple enters my system, the reaction becomes far worse than the rash I get when I just touch it (when I consume it, my throat swells, and I can't breathe, when I smell it, the above happens) so because the risk is so high, I'm scared to give it a go. Given what you've said, if I could ensure a safe and controlled setting (and so long as they don't add any pineapple scent), I would be willing to give it a try! Otherwise, because my risk is so high, I may have to just stay safe.

      You’re totally right. Fortunately, there’s a growing trend (albeit slow, but it’s still growing!) of people moving away from massive corporations and buying local
      One of the things my town (in Scotland) found was during COVID, we had to buy more things locally. The UK is a tiny island. As soon as borders close, imports either slow down or stop completely 😭 the supermarkets were practically empty.
      The only upside to COVID was people ended up buying from local bakeries, butchers etc. instead of just buying everything from a supermarket. Lots of people found they actually preferred the food from smaller businesses and after the pandemic, continued to buy locally ☺️
      It’s still hard to compete with behemoth companies, but it’s very slowly becoming more popular to move towards smaller local businesses.

    Bromelain is super plentiful, or rather too plentiful so its dirt cheap getting it from food waste.

    Now if boss moms in social media sold natural soaps instead of milk shake powders or drop box tutorials I'd support their business

    Downside to using so much sugar is how harmful the sugar industry is.

      it was funny seeing them use brown vane sugar for that. here in germany, that is very much the expensive kind of sugar (white beet sugar is the cheapest).

    I used to make various types of alcohol at home. I experimented with various fruits doing so.
    One time I left a big tub of mix so long it went to vinegar, which is supposedly a great natural cleaner.
    This made me realise how easy it would be to make ones own cleaning products.

      Once upon a time, this was all probably common knowledge, like knowing how to tie your own shoelaces. It's quite strange to think how we live in a state of normalised dependence on industrial products.
