In an Effort to Boost Sales, Tide Makes Big Change to Tide Pods

Proctor and Gamble’s laundry sensation, Tide, has decided to make an aggressive change to it’s Tide Pod line in order to boost slumping sales. Tide Pods will now be fully edible. That’s right, now you can safely eat that delicious little detergent dumpling. The company is adjusting the soap and ingredients in order to make the product more palatable for the human digestive system, while still retaining it’s vibrant colors and powerful cleaning properties. You may remember Tide Pods made headline news on numerous occasions after young people found the bright colors and snack size too enticing to ignore, which lead to a number of deaths. The company had to send out various warnings and completely change the product labels, along with starting a media campaign to stop the consumption of the sudsy clothes cleaners. Instead of fighting that losing battle, Tide and the humanitarians at Proctor and Gamble have pulled a complete 180 and struck a delicate balance between deadly and delicious, which is projected to send sales soaring into the stratosphere. The exact flavor combinations are under wraps, but Tide representatives hinted at a tropical flare, as well as, a berry based line using completely artificial flavoring. When pressed about the potential long-term health risks from consuming flavored detergents, the Tide rep said there was no evidence of any long-term effects, because it has never been done before, and thus is likely to be perfectly safe since the science is settled. Tide plans to market the edible pods in cartoons and schools to boost the demand through organic subliminal messaging. You can expect edible Tide Pods to hit the shelves alongside there non-edible counterparts before year end. Tide is not expected to end its non-edible Tide Pod line, they’re simply adding an edible option to the shelves.
