Unpopular opinion: That fancy organic cleaning spray I laughed at actually works better than bleach

I spent 5 years using straight bleach on tough bathroom grime because I thought natural stuff was a joke. Then a client in Austin insisted I try her $15 plant-based spray on a moldy shower corner, and it lifted the stain in 2 minutes with no smell. Now I'm rethinking half my supply cabinet - has anyone else found a 'hippie' product that surprised you?

Huh, yeah I had the same thing happen with a plant-based dish soap. My wife bought some expensive brand and I rolled my eyes but it cut through grease way better than the cheap stuff. Now I'm kind of wondering what else I've been wrong about.

There's a pattern I've noticed where we get set in our ways about certain things and assume cheaper means the same thing. Like how I used to buy the cheapest trash bags until I finally tried a mid-range brand and they actually didn't rip when I lifted them out of the can. Little things like that add up over time and make you realize you might have been cutting corners without even knowing it.
