Formula 409 Cleaner I am at a total loss at why anybody concerned with sustainability would generously give 5 stars. This is a product that I would use as a last result. could it be that the company has somebody is plugging their product hoping that somebody who uses sustainlane is gullible?

What else is there to say. I shop at Rainbow, because it reflects my values. Unlike Safeway which only cares about making a profit for its shareholders: Rainbow workers are the shareholders, so they know that they are working in a community to help a community.
They have a huge bulk section, and have pleny of organic...
