@CelloMomOnCars why pods remain legal is beyond me. You only have to see one kid need a corneal transplant to realize how stupid these things are.

@airadam @mcnado @CelloMomOnCars it is my personal and professional opinion that detergent pods should never be kept in a home with kids. They can be lethal if swallowed, the contents can kill or maim if the pod is bitten and the contents inhaled, and when kids squeeze them and the highly caustic detergent gets in their eyes, it can cause ulcers on the eye requiring corneal transplant. They have infinite risk with no tangible benefit over regular detergent. |
@mcnado @CelloMomOnCars I just had to look that up - horrendous. I take it this is a risk not as well-known to people as it should be? I bet I know lots of parents of small kids who use these things.
