I want to know about the name (Dudu), What does it mean? My imagination might be wrong since I consider it might be human/animal waste mixed in it.

I'm not sure why it's called that, maybe because of it's color that could be the only reason. This is however the best soap I have ever used. It smells great and the benifits to the skin are amazing. I always have to buy more than one because It disappears fast when family members want to use it. Everybody has to have their own bar. This is a great soap.

I have no idea what the name means, but I don't think it's what you think it is. It is made of mostly palm oil, ash and shea butter and I don't think our country would have let it slip in if it could be harmful. It really does supposedly have healing ingredients and makes your skin feel soft. Read the ingredients list and I think you will feel better about it. I used it on my hair and it had more volume than it's ever had, but also felt funny to the touch. My skin loves it and I have bought a lot of it to give away as gifts. I hope this helps. Find someone from Africa and see if they can give you any more information. I have no idea what the name means, but I don't think it's what you think it is.

I believe it has more to do with the color. The soap is 100% natural and is wonderful for your skin. If you ever use it you will be hooked. Unlike most bar soaps you will never fell that residue on your skin after using this soap.

LOL, my daughter and i was thinking the same thing but, no there is no human/animal waste in Dudu Osuns soap lol. A young lady by the name of Yoruba girl gave a product review about Dudu Osun soap and mentioned these things as follows: Dudu Osun means, black camwood soap, and the scientific name for camwood is (Baphia Natida is also known as African sandlewood. Camwood is a shrubby hard-wooded African tree, and the trees wood is commonly used to make a red dye. The earliest dyewood (Camwood) was from west africa. So with that information, i saw nothing about poop being in the soap it's just all natural ingredients :) LOL, my daughter and i was thinking the same thing but, no there is no human/animal waste in Dudu Osuns soap lol.

Not tekky enough to give an answer; I read about RAW & stilldon't know what it is. Sorry.

The label says "FSC Mixed". That means a definite maybe. Bing "FSC Mixed" for the details.

I believe it is a 'balanced' grain nutritionally and is raised where the Natural soil was rich in nutrients not found other places. Now it could be raised other places soooo watch your source. High protien if I remember correctly.

People also use it as a de-worming (anthelmintic) agent for livestock, instead of big pharma drugs. Apparently it is very effective compared to some other all natural items. You can search for dosages on the 'net.

I read today on their Facebook page a comment to another question that was answered by Taste of the Wild, that 2 ingredients are outsourced from China. The comment was made on March 7, 2014 if you want to read it yourself. I buy this and I love it and my dogs have done really well on it, but I will not continue to feed them ingredients from China. If I wont eat anything from Chine then neither will my dogs.

It is from Yak semen. There is a culture produced from it. It is 100% Vegan.

While looking at the label, on the right side is a list of important info in English. The left side is in French. Now im just speculating here as to why they have placed French verbage on said label...but here goes.FRENCH PEOPLE HAVE ANIMALS !SOME PEOPLE SPEAK FRENCH !THE MAKER IS FRENCH, AND DOES NOT WANTTO LET GO OF HIS HERITAGE !OR as a complete "out there" idea.... The makers are trying to make this AMAZING PRODUCT available to more than just AMERICAN ANIMALS.Seriously? This was your question?....SMDH

I'm confused...if it's free of all of 'the above' then why is it not 'organic' as stated in another answer to a question?

I did not know that. I am aware that adulterated ingredients in human or animal food regardless of where those ingredients came from can have a harmful effect and avoid specific foods when problems are identified by competent authorities. I have never done a forensic examination of any of the milk bone products I've purchased over the last 20 years so I can't attest to their chemical composition. I can say that they've been a staple for the thirty-plus dogs we've adopted during those years with much apparent enjoyment and no apparent ill-effects. If that paradigm ever changes, I will promptly amend my review.

Someone questioning about pork-derived contents is probably concerned with kashrut/halal dietary restrictions. I know that many interpretations of the rules of kashrut permit ingestion of pure chemicals isolated from animals (rennet in cheese, for instance). It would be something the asker would need to check with their dietary authority.

Hard to tell but the say to error on the side of "not" and I tend to think it's not recyclable. Doesn't mean it's not environmentally friendly. May be made from recyclable means. Most likely is.

Yes I have tried both and the Dudu is a bit more processed brand with additional ingredients. It's also formed into a soap bar and it's actually black in color. This soap is RAW and unprocessed and therefore better in my opinion. I read somewhere that true African Black Soap is NOT black in color.

I don't know, I never thought about that. Do you ask this question because of a real concern about animal products and is it something I need to be concerned about? It works for me, I don't take it every night only when I feel as though I really need a good nights sleep. I'll look at the bottle when I get home.

My comment is about the spelling. You may, indeed, think of your little precious as a "Shit-Zu," but the correct spelling is Shih Tzu. I noticed someone else made the same mistake. It is good to know what kind of a dog you have! :)

I have a hunch Zeyu's question relates to the photos posted by "GK GK GK." I have the same question...
