    Regardless of the marketing term “anti-bacterial” on the label, there are quite a few specific ingredients in this area that are banned in the EU but in wide use in the US.

            The term “anti-bacterial” is a marketing term. It doesn’t indicate anything about the specific ingredients in a product. For example, triclosan and benzalkonium chloride are banned in hand soaps in the EU but in wide use in the US. Products in both regions can be marketed as “anti-bacterial” but contain completely different ingredients. You’re willfully ignoring what I first said while falling head over heels for product marketing and implying I’m the one who’s not smart lmao
