Dear Friends: Procter & Gamble, the parent company to Tide, announced on Friday that it plans to package and ship Tide laundry detergent products in a cardboard box that includes a twist-to-open spout.
It's called the Tide Eco-Box and it's been designed "to reduce the environmental impact of shipping laundry detergent in eCommerce," a spokesperson for P&G North America Fabric Care told BuzzFeed News.
According to CNN, the new box uses 60% less plastic than shipping a bottle of detergent and will cost the company less overall to ship because it weighs less and takes up less space in a delivery truck.
The boxed tide detergent will be made available for giant online retail channels like Amazon and Wal-Mart starting in January.
CNN said the fear is that high school students would drink this detergent because it looks vaguely the same as a popular drink currently on the market.
Let's put it this way folks, if they're that stupid they deserve to have their guts rinsed out! (Beside that, it's about time we thinned the herd a bit!)

The way I see it anyway!
Tide Cheer!
