As if feminine hygiene wasn't stressful enough...
Quote:
Someone is watching over Danielle Parr, the Texas woman who was about to use this Kotex tampon, unaware of its moldy Swiss cheese center until it accidentally popped out of its applicator.
Aghast, agog and probably a-gag, she contacted the brand's headquarters to report the issue. According to Parr's blog , Kotex reps were not nearly as surprised.
Their initial response: "In instances where it has been found, we conducted tests on the product involved and have found the mold to be a common environmental species that carries no health risk. The vegetative mold is similar in nature to mold on vegetables or in baked goods."
Parr, like any reasonable person, wasn't comforted by the fact that food rots too.

Milk and cheese!
A must for any survival kit.
Re: As if feminine hygiene wasn't stressful enough...
That is why you make your applicator see through. Oh, and stop mold from getting into the packages..
Re: As if feminine hygiene wasn't stressful enough...
As if the people at Kotex thought that was even slightly okay. What the pineapple.

This is as bad a response as the one Mountain Dew gave when that guy found a mouse in his Mountain Dew can.
"lol soda would dissolve the mouse dummy xD"
Now it's just
"LOL the mold is 100% safe and you don't have to worry about it! :D"

I know right?! "its the same mold that grows on vegetables and baked goods." So, it's totally healthy to eat old, moldy bread? And that rotten tomato in the bottom of my fridge is okay too? Couldn't possibly get sick, it's 100% safe!
Yeah like I really wanna shove that pomegranate up my plum.

That she even measures blood in "amount needed to bake cookies" to begin with is slightly strange, don't you think?

Surely they are all made from the same stuff in the same way. Hell they are probably all made in the same place and just stuck in different boxes.
