Tide Pod Craziness Returns, New Recall Across Montana

I think I am just going to give up for this week. Seriously. My milk is under scrutiny. The cereal that I want to pour that milk over is facing a lawsuit. I can't sprinkle cinnamon on my toast.

And now, the one chore that I actually don't mind doing has come back around to needing more warnings for it. It's like living a bad country song, but instead of losing crops and my dog, it's a couple of vices and a chore I still enjoy.

These Stores Are in Pretty Much Every City Across Montana

In a new press release on April 5, 2024, from Proctor & Gamble, they announced that they would be doing a voluntary packaging recall of Tide Pods, Gain Flings, Ace Pods and Ariel Pods liquid laundry detergent packets packaged in flexible film bags.

The recall doesn't affect the pods on their own, but rather the actual packaging that they are in. The recall only is for bagged pods but covers many different variances of the 4 main products.
