Calgon\n\nThe other famous advertisement is the commercial for Calgon water softener. A Caucasian woman with an American accent asks "Mr. Lee" (who owns a laundry shop) how he gets her shirts so clean. He replies, with what appears to be a Chinese accent "Ancient Chinese secret." The scene changes to Mrs. Lee, who is in an adjoining room. Mrs. Lee is also ethnically Chinese, but she speaks English with a thoroughly American accent, and explains to the audience that her husband's "ancient Chinese secret" is that he uses Calgon water softener. Mrs. Lee ultimately gives the secret away by sticking her head into the front room where Mr. Lee and the customer are standing, and shouts "We need more Calgon!" To which the customer replies "Ancient, Chinese secret, huh!" This commercial is one also remembered by people many years after it has aired. It has been viewed by some groups as continuing a stereotype that all laundry services are run by Chinese immigrants, but it could equally be viewed as a satire of that stereotype. In addition, this commercial was parodied in the television series Arrested Development (the "Sword of Destiny" episode from season 2).

To launder means to clean, so laundry is something that gets cleaned.

I love liquid Tide with bleach. (You can use it on colors too.) If you use this along with outdoor fresh Bounce dryer sheets, your laundry will smell clean and fresh for days!

Soap is a molecule that consist of long carbon chain ending in -COONa. The latter endchain easily attaches to water and the carbon chain attaches to fats and grease.  Although grease will normally adhere to skin or clothing, the soap molecules can attach to it as a "handle" and make it easier to rinse away.

There's this one commercial with this girl saying like "This morning my hair was straight, then Brad called and i decided to go curly, so i used Curl & Wash, thank you Curl & Wash." See, i even memorized the whole thing 'cause it's on the whole time! And also the Head On commercial. "Head On, Apply directly to the forehead, Head on, apply directly to the forehead, Head On, apply directly to the forehead." Okay, we get the message!

Total Fatty Matter\n\nIf the soap base is not refined, white colored soap noodles cannot be manufactured. These will be little off white in color. White soap noodles are preferred because any light colored soap can be made. For toilet soap, generally 78% TFM( total fatty matter) noodles are used. As TFM value decreases, soap quality decreases.

The first soap was made from animal fat and ashes.  People may have even been aware of this combination before history was recorded, but there is no way of knowing for sure.  This is what I found at the website I've listed in sources:\n\n"It is recorded that the Babylonians were making soap around 2800 B.C. and that it was known to the Phoenicians around 600 B.C. These early references to soap and soap making were for the use of soap in the cleaning of textile fibers such as wool and cotton in preparation for weaving into cloth."
