Perhaps a match for the UK market? From what I've read they often don't rinse the soap off of dishes there (I wish I were making this up).

Maybe it's the cause of our "bad teeth".

(I heard the rumour too. But no-one I know fails to rinse the "washing up liquid" (as we call it) off their plates)

Sadly it's true. I've seen people just put the dishes in the dish rack and let the soap bubbles slide off them.

If there was enough soap residue to matter you'd notice the taste.
