    The maker of Tide liquid laundry packets denied suggestions that it will discontinue the product because of the dangerous online “Pods Challenge” in which participants record themselves with the item in their mouths. “It's a complete hoax" http://abcn.ws/2F6cX4i pic.twitter.com/mYsjglzuPh

        I'm not exactly a fan of large corporations moral standing in general, but this has nothing to do with Tide themselves. Gross misuse of their product is not their fault. They should feel no need to remove the product from their line.

        Agreed.... There are several dangerous cleaning products in a standard household, should they stop production on those too? Worst case scenario, change the design so stupid people don't consume them lol. Ridiculous we even have to have this discussion.

        I don't think the design is the issue, as it's the whole "challenge" thing. If it was small children mistaking them fora candy, yes. Here, the people participating know what the product is.

        Social media + stupidity can be a deadly combo. At least YouTube has been quick to ban these videos because it could have gotten much worse

        YouTube taking action does make sense. Tide has already released a statement telling everyone the obvious thing of "do not eat." And they will most likely have to put that on packaging now. 🙄

        People dumb enough to eat laundry detergent SHOULD eat laundry detergent and remove themselves from the gene pool.

        Oh Tide Schmide. I doubt if any of this has hurt their sales. Sane, rational people know not to eat laundry detergent. If anything it's given this product free publicity.

        Why should they discontinue the product because some teenagers don't have common sense and have too much time on their hands? smh
