Just reading the apple cider thread and DeeAnna's reply about yogurt in soap producing sodium lactate interests me.
A bit of research tells me lactic acid is mostly present in sour products such as yogurt.
My question is, would adding yogurt (or buttermilk and lemon juice) produce enough SL to have the effects that adding straight SL does? And would there be any other benefits from using yogurt over SL?
I ask because I've been wanting to try SL but just haven't gotten round to ordering any yet but obviously yogurt is readily available.
