1. A detergent composition comprising:
- (a) from about 2 to 35% of an α
-sulfonated alkyl ester of a fatty acid having an average of about 12-16 carbon atoms;
(b) from about 2% to 25% by weight of a second anionic surfactant the second anionic surfactant being selected from alkyl ether sulfates, alkyl sulfates, linear alkyl benzene sulfonates, or mixtures thereof; and
(c) from about 2.0 to 40% by weight of a nonionic surfactant,the sum of the concentrations of α
-sulfonated alkyl ester, anionic surfactant, and nonionic surfactant in a washing solution being from about 0.05% to about 3.0% by weight.
