Many of MT’s soaps contain macadamia nut oil. It’s very rich and very stable, making it an ideal ingredient for soapmaking. Like eucalyptus, the macadamia tree originally came from Australia. To me the word macadamia sounds exotic, and for years I thought it was borrowed from an aboriginal or a Polynesian language. In fact, the macadamia tree is named after John Macadam, a Scottish-Australian teacher and politician. Macadam grew up in Glasgow, where he studied chemistry and medicine. In 1855 he left Scotland and sailed for Melbourne, Australia. There he taught and served as health officer of the city and later held several position in the government. Because of Macadam’s popularity, his friend and botanist, Dr Ferdinand Mueller, named the macadamia tree after him. Since then macadamia nut oil has found its way into a variety of cosmetics from shampoos to sunscreens, while here in the Hawaiian islands, where most of the world’s macadamia nuts are grown, we're happy to just eat them fried, toasted, or smothered in chocolate. It's good to know, though, that they make a pretty wonderful shave soap, too.
