I never thought I’d be hearing about people ingesting laundry detergent for fun, but that is today’s reality with the infamous Tide Pod Challenge. This is an actual trend in which people film themselves eating poison. Because of the sad reality that this is a thing, I am providing a list of 10 things that would be better for you to eat than Tide Pods.
1. Mozzarella Sticks
Who can’t resist a good cheese pull? Especially with a substance that you can eat.
2. Pancakes
Start your morning with something that doesn’t kill you.
3. Escargot
It may look and taste as gross as laundry detergent, but it’s edible.
4. Fruit & vegetables
Now that you aren’t poisoning yourself, you might as well be healthy.
5. Buddy the Elf’s breakfast pasta
Or you can be unhealthy but like still not eat poison.
6. Your own homework
If you’re tired of real food and your dog’s busy, take his place.7. Flavored chapstick
We’ve all done it.
8. Play-Doh
You can even shape it to look like a Tide Pod.
9. A cardboard box
At least it’s not laundry detergent.
10. Literally anything else
Our parents all worked very hard to help us learn not to ingest poison as children, so let’s continue this into adulthood and STOP EATING LAUNDRY DETERGENT!
