The Raw Chicken Test!
Here’s how the Norwex Raw Chicken Test ties into my Norwex journey! When I first discovered Norwex, my friend called me to tell me about it. She had been to her first Norwex party and was over the moon about it!
At first glance, I thought, “I’ve already got microfiber. I’m good to go!”. But then my friend came to visit and brought her Norwex microfiber. I was truly blown away by the difference in quality and performance of the Norwex cloths in comparison to my microfiber. (Mind you… this was 12 years ago and I had paid over $80 for my microfiber, so it wasn’t the “cheap stuff”, either!).
You know when you know?
It was at that moment, as we cleaned age-old carpet stains out of our white living room carpet, shined mirrors, windows and pretty much everything with JUST WATER, I knew! I knew these were products that I needed to help bring to the world. And that began my Norwex journey. I’ve never looked back since. These products continue to thrill me all these years later. I can’t imagine cleaning our home without them. Over these years, the Norwex products have saved me SOO much time, SOOOO much money… and SOOOO many chemicals.
Raw Chicken Test: holding our breath to see if it passed!
I remember the first time, standing with my good friend, Tiana, we did this raw chicken test with these professional testing swabs. (We got the swabs through an inspection tool company, Weber Scientific.) We smeared the raw chicken. We reached for one of our oldest EnviroCloths that we had, and we held our breath.
We knew the independent lab studies showed that the Norwex microfiber removes up to 99% bacteria from the surface, but yet, this felt like the real test. Would it clean up raw meat juice? 𤢠Could it actually clean toilets with little boys potty-training?!? š³ Dog slobber on windows? š¶ Standing there together… we wondered, would it really pass this incredibly sensitive swab test??
Today, as you’re perhaps processing these same questions as you start your Norwex journey, I want to share that raw chicken test with you!

Watch the quick video below to better understand how Norwex cleans mechanically instead of chemically. This means you don’t need to bring potentially harmful chemical cleaners into your home! Not only that, but these products save the average family over $600 per year in replacing paper towels, disinfectant wipes, cleaners, etc.
