    If the soap bar isn't causing a flushing problem with the toilet, I would not worry about it at all. It will desolve just like it does in the shower or tub. If it is causing a problem with the toilet flushing, I would use a closet auger to break it up and send it down the drain. Otherwise no worries, okay?
