Are you tired of spending money on bar soap that dries out your skin and leaves behind a nasty residue? Do you want to save the environment and your wallet by switching to a natural and sustainable alternative? If you answered yes to any of these questions, then you need to hear about this amazing discovery that a Reddit user from r/Frugal made: soap potatoes.

That’s right, soap potatoes. These are not your ordinary potatoes that you eat or make into fries. These are special potatoes that you can grow in your backyard or balcony, and use as a substitute for bar soap. They are cheap, easy, and effective. Here’s how it works:

- First, you need to get some soap potato seeds. You can order them online from a reputable seller, or you can ask your local farmer if they have any. They are usually sold under the name of Solanum saponaceum, or soapspuds.

- Next, you need to plant the seeds in a pot or a patch of soil. Make sure they get enough sunlight and water, and watch them grow into beautiful green plants with white flowers.

- After a few months, you will notice that the plants produce small, round, yellow tubers that look like regular potatoes. These are the soap potatoes. They are ready to harvest when they are firm and slightly wrinkled.

- To use them as soap, you need to peel them first. The peel contains a natural substance called saponin, which is a powerful cleanser and foaming agent. You can either compost the peel or use it as a detergent for your laundry.

- Then, you need to rub the peeled soap potato on your wet skin, just like you would with a bar of soap. You will feel a gentle lather forming, and a pleasant, earthy smell. The soap potato will cleanse your skin, remove dirt and oil, and moisturize it with its natural starch and vitamins.

- You can store the soap potatoes in a cool, dry place, and use them until they start to sprout eyes. That’s when you know they are past their prime, and you need to plant them again to grow more soap potatoes.

Sounds too good to be true, right? Well, don’t take our word for it. Take the word of u/SoapTatoLover, the Reddit user who shared this incredible tip with the world. Here is what they had to say:

I’ve been using soap potatoes for over a year now, and I can honestly say they are the best thing that ever happened to me. I used to spend a fortune on bar soap, and my skin was always dry and irritated. Now, I save money, help the planet, and have soft, smooth, and glowing skin. Plus, I love growing my own soap potatoes. It’s so satisfying to see them sprout and harvest them. They are like my little babies.

But not everyone is happy about this revolutionary discovery. In fact, u/SoapTatoLover claims that their original post was shadow banned by Reddit admins, because of the influence of Big Soap. They say that the soap industry is threatened by the soap potato movement, and is trying to suppress it by any means necessary. They warn other soap potato users to be careful, and to spread the word as much as they can.

Big Soap is watching us. They don’t want us to know the truth about soap potatoes. They want us to keep buying their toxic and expensive products. They are afraid of losing their profits and power. They have infiltrated Reddit, and they are censoring our posts. They are trying to silence us, but we won’t let them. We are the soap potato revolution, and we are unstoppable.

So, what are you waiting for? Join the soap potato revolution today, and never buy bar soap again. You will thank us later. And remember, don’t let Big Soap get you down. They can take our anti-soap posts, but they can’t take our anti-soap potatoes.
