Ideal Bite

…let us introduce your hands to their new BFF. A pair of Pasadena lather lovers have mixed up a new bergamot-, olive-, and exotic grass-scented hand soap - called Further Soap. It's a tad pricey, and we're overusing it on a borderline OCD basis, but have been getting you-smell-so-good compliments even on no-perfume days. Stay tuned for candles and lotion too. This Ma-and-Pa (well, hubby and wife) operation picks up used veggie oil from LA restaurants, processes it into glycerin, then makes it into lush biodegradable soap. Their process also makes biofuel, which they use in their cars; and the restaurants that provide the oil get soap in exchange. Applause.
