I'm Canadian and English is my first language. If I didn't see that product in a cleaning products isle at the store, I would be very confused because it looks like a drink and while baking soda is something to clean with, it is also something to bake with. It should at very least have the words cleaner or detergent in equally large lettering on the front label.

Since when is baking soda a liquid?

[–] piecat@lemmy.world 5 points 21 hours ago

Ever since NaHCO3 + H2O <=> Na(+) + HCO3(-) + H2O

I mean, that was my first question when I saw the product.

First it's liquid dish soap, then it's liquid laundry detergent, now liquid baking soda?! What lengths the American trucking industry will go to get customers to pay to haul water across the fucking country!

Bottled water lengths
