Review on 🧽 3M Scotch-Brite 97030 Light-Duty Natural Fiber Scrub Sponge - Efficient Cleaning Tool for Gentle Scrubbing by Trini Tremblay

Revainrating 1 out of 5

DANGEROUS! suitable for household goods

This product is extremely dangerous for anyone allergic to nuts. I read a comment on another review that said they were safe because the allergenic protein is in the pulp of the nut, not the shell, and while true, it still poses an unsafe risk to anyone with one Tree nut allergy. Nuts need to be considered - they can easily emit dust into the air which then contaminates everything around them, INCLUDING the shell. So if you're making a walnut shell product, you can easily become cross-contaminated in trace amounts, and many nut allergy sufferers even react to trace levels. So when you wash with a walnut shell sponge, you essentially contaminate all of your dishes with walnut dust. While this isn't dangerous for most people, if you ever bring your own dishes to a communal table or invite friends over for dinner, you run the risk of sending someone to the emergency room. Hard to believe I have to worry about sponges now. , of all things. I won't buy Scotch Brite anymore (also not "safe"). My daughter's life is too precious.

Pros
  • health and life
