Big Soap obviously exists though? Some of the biggest companies in the world these days are soap companies. Proctor and Gamble, Unilever, and Colgate-Palmolive are all enormous companies and one of their most important marketing tactics is telling people that they are stinky, smelly and no one will ever love them

If you look at their revenue breakdown about half of it is different kinds of soap, especially if you include other soap types like dish and laundry detergent, shampoo, and toothpaste. Then about another quarter is vanity like makeup and deodorant. Then the last quarter is ultra processed foods. It is accurate to call them Big Soap.
