dawn literally has lye in it
From what I can see, it’s used to balance the pH. So I assume a small amount.
it's fucking lye, doesn't take much
Does this also apply to the caustic and corrosive ingredients in a soda?
It’s phosphoric acid, doesn’t make much, yet it’s safe to drink. See how fucking moronic that argument is you muppet?
It wasn't an argument, it was a statement of fact. Go stick your hand in an extremely weak lye mixture for a few minutes, get back to me.
What exactly is your argument here? I use Dawn; it doesn’t appear to affect my cast iron pan. Many people online use it to clean their cast iron with no ill effects.
I mean, they use the stuff to clean off ducks after oil spills. I suspect whatever concentration it has is not high enough to have any caustic effects.
So clearly it does take “much.”
Oh wait, we aren't doing "no lye in it" now? Huh. THE REASON THEY USE IT ON THE DUCKS IS BECAUSE OF THE LYE THAT MAKES IT EFFECTIVE AGAINST OIL TO THAT DEGREE. Now consider what your seasoning is made of.
