Teach Soap

Hi all. Long time no see.

I have started eating a high raw diet lately (copious amounts of raw fruits and veggies) as well as green smoothies. I have been trying to no avail to find a fruit/veggie wash or soap. Then I said, self, you make soap, duh!

So I'd like to do this, however I'm so used to making something for SKIN, (conditioning, yadda yadda) that I'm kind of at a loss as to what oils to use for a veggie wash. Obviously it would be clean rinsing and have no flavoring/smell. I considered a castile soap but if possible would like to use cheaper oils. In a perfect world it could even clean off that ever loving wax they put on everything!

Any ideas? BTW I want to make this in a bar form.

Thanks all! You can even steal my idea and make your own and sell it at your shops. I think something like this, done right, could sell decently.

Maybe I'm missing something here and/or a complete moron (probably both) but wouldn't fruits or veggie mold in the soap? By that I mean, go bad and literally start to mold?
Maybe if you dehydrated them first? Now I'm just thinking out loud, but I just can't see fresh fruit or veg staying good in soap or any other body product.

I hope you find a way to do this, I really do. I'm not trying to poo on your parade, I'm just wondering about shelf-life.

I would make a veggie wash with 100% coconut, as this oil is very cleansing.

I love this idea, I use a liquid wash for my fruits & veg but, wouldn't a bar be kinda akward ? maybe brusing or damaging the softer skinned items? I'd be more inclined to buy a liquid
But this item would sell fabulously at farmers markets!!!!!!!

I love it!

I actually think the bar would work better, because you could lather it in your hands and gently massage fruits, veggies and the harder to clean things like leafy greens. Maybe I'm just a bar soap nerd.

Too bad the only oil I'm completely, 100% out of at the moment is coconut oil. Go figure..

Thanks all!
