Protect liquid detergent pods from freezing ?
As we prepare to leave the cold Midwest, do I need to protect Tide pods from freezing during travel ? Package doesn't say, at least that I can see. I Googled it and all I found was questions/answer...

Soap pods are not water, but they do contain water. Since the lowest temperature it is possible to lower the freezing point of water to by adding "stuff" is 0°F, you might get away without a problem as long as it stayed warmer, but if it goes below zero, you might have a mess.
Where did you get the idea that 0 deg. F is the coldest it can get. The water based antifreeze in you cars won't freeze till -35 or so depending on the concentration. I don't know what the freezing point of soap pods is (but I would think it would be way below zero because there is very little water) and I doubt you will be able to figure it out in a household freezer. To be safe buy them after you get out of the cold weather or keep them warm till you get south.
