Palmolive Insanity

Can someone explain to me why Palmolive is now making a dish soap titled 'Crisp Cucumber Melon?' I mean come on now, crisp cucumber? Give me a break.

There's actually a whole range of food-scented cleaning products out there... apple,orange, grapefruit, and what have you. At times it's hard to tell if you're holding a can of cleanser or drink mix.

I find the Lavender and
Ylang Ylang far more interesting, if for no other reason than I have no idea what Ylang Ylang is.

Yeah, I don't what Ylang Ylang is either and I suspect I probably don't want to know. I just can't figure out why anyone wants themselves or their dishes to smell like crisp cucumbers. I suppose the same could be said for Ylang Ylang, whatever that is.

I think the idea is more to make the dish soap smell like cucumbers than the dishes. At least I'd hope so, because smell tends to mess with the ol' taste buds, which means that a steak could suddenly taste all picklely. Ew.

cause it will smell nice? I think I will try it out sometime :-)

thanks for looking me up on my blog. It is true that we are each endowed with different spiritual gifts, and we must use them to the extent that God gave them to us. The confusion over the gifts attributes to the sad state of Christianity today.

My girlfriends family are huge fans of Ronald Reagan, and i am shocked that they do not have an object like the one in your pictures. So.. thanks for the gift idea ;-)

Dude, I just read your blog posts from new years up..... Bwa hahahahahahahahahahahahhahahah......

they're Grrrrreat!

Anyway, I thought the ylang-ylang interesting for the same reason MJ did. Nonetheless, plamolive TM has yet to make a dish soap that doesn't smell like old gym socks sprayed with random potpori stenches.
For instance, the "original" stench is just plain old gym socks, no matter how you cut it. But the "fresh green apple" is gym socks steeped in something that has nothing to do with apples.
