In the 1940s, dish soap was primarily made from natural ingredients such as soap flakes or soap powder derived from animal or vegetable fats. These soaps were often combined with water and scrubbed onto dishes to remove grease and grime. Synthetic detergents, which are more commonly used today, started to become popular in the 1940s as well.
