Kroger's entry level automatic dishwasher powder (Kroger Value brand)is available in my area and still has phosphates in it according to the ingredients label. Looked at the Easy Living brand and that claimed to be phosphate free. Kroger Value brand came only in one size: 65 oz. It was on sale for $1.99 a box. Picked up a couple of boxes. The Easy Living brand was on sale for $2.99 for a slightly larger box of powder. It was phosphate free.
