Also, Tide discontinued the Pods, so, I guess that's a solution.
They're not.

Well you aren't a real socialist. Just a sociopath disguised as one.
Not to mention that this thread split off from LWDT, so I assumed you would think this thread was a "revisionist hellhole".

we don't "all" have to do something about it. Tide makes some minute changes to their product (which they're in the process of doing) and this whole thing washes overBombadil wrote:Kubra wrote:Tide is looking into adding an extremely bitter layer to the tide pods.

It's amazing that a few people die due to a stupid meme and we all have to do something about it.. but guns..
Tide pods don't kill people, people kill people.

The Consumer Product Safety Commission also found that elderly adults with dementia were confused by the product and have also ingested it.
Clearly it's a mental health issue..

I sort of feel if you're making a highly dangerous household product, don't package it up in bright colours and looking like a sweet.
I'm not sure they can do much about teens being dumb, though one could argue that making it look edible doesn't really help. I don't exactly blame Tide, and prior to this meme they did add a double lock mechanism and the bitter taste.. but I'm also pretty sad about posts thinking it's fine for people to die.

They couldn’t anticipate people wanting to eat dishwasher detergent.

They didn't 'anticipate'..
Consumer Reports reported that "since early 2012, poison-control centers nationwide have received reports of nearly 7,700 pod-related exposures to children age 5 years and younger."[7] Tide Pods sent one child to the hospital per day in 2012 and 2013, with the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) tagging them as a health risk in 2012
It took til 2015 until they added a bitter taste and double lock mechanism.
Look, I'm not exactly blaming Tide as the entire culprits though I do think they could have made potentially lethal, popular household products, a little less appealing in terms of colourful packaging. For the meme part, sure these teens are dumb but, again, it doesn't excuse people on these boards being perfectly happy that people die.
There's things Tide can do, like stop making them look like sweets.

They should've anticipated young kids but again parents should keep that stuff out of reach.
