Used soap from Hilton Hotels is getting a second life.
Hey I actually helped create this program. And as info the soap is given to third party companies, plastic is recycled (if bottled soap / shampoo), then it is hygienically processed and donated to a variety of causes. Let me know if you have any questions, but it’s not (for once) horrible capitalism something or reused in the hotels.
But now what can I spend all this anger on?
I’m honestly really glad to hear this. I always figured they just threw it away and it was such a massive waste.
Thanks for triggering my germaphobia.
But then again, I’d probably be too afraid to travel.
Isn’t soap supposed to kill all that stuff? Wouldn’t germs die when in contact with it for too long?

Here is video about it, if you want to see the process: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6qJV34pcOaw
Honestly, as long as it’s been shown to be sanitary, I’m so for recycling. Imagine throwing out all that barely used soap? What a waste.
Maybe it’s just the crappy hotels I’ve used, but the soaps are always so small, I need two whole bars to take a shower. I know I’m not in the best of shape, but I ain’t that huge.
