Ajax is the best. And I'm happy to see I'm not the only one who thinks
so. Good! Maybe it won't be discontinued.
They had a scent a few years ago, lavender-lemon. I loved it! The
smell reminded me of a bubble bath my Mom used to use, actually. It
was only available at Walmart and not all the time. It was hard to
find and then they discontinued it, probably due to low sales. Thing
is... if it's hard to find and not sold in a lot of places, how can
people buy it?? Frustrating!

But anyway, Lemon Ajax is really the best there is and I've been using
it for most of my life. The other one I liked a lot was an oldie but a
goodie, Crystal White Octagon. It was cheap, and I found it mostly at
Walmart, and one of the supermarkets. Then it disappeared from store
shelves due to low sales--then they discontinued it. It wasn't
popular, they didn't advertise but it did a great job on dishes and
pots. Oh, and washing up the kitchen after cooking. Cut right through
cooking schmutz on the stove top, backsplash, range hood, etc. And
food stains on clothing?--used it as a pre-treater before putting the
clothes in the washer.
