the bible quotes are kinda weird tho, im just tryna scrub my ass
Dr bronners wouldn't be Dr bronners without the schizo ramblings all over the bottle, and there truly is no better ass-scrubbing medium
I don't know what we're all using Dr. Bronners for and at this point, I'm afraid to ask.
It’s soap. Like, traditional, no frills soap. Vegetable oil reacted with potassium hydroxide. It’s a very effective way to make oils mix with water so as to rinse them off of stuff. So if you just want a substance that removes excess oil from your body, it works.
Basically no other major cosmetic company sells a product like that anymore and if you don’t trust those companies, that’s what Dr. Bronners is for. Just gotta deal with the ranting on the bottles.
I think they just ran out of things to put on the bottle
cleanliness is half of religion
God loves ~~a fool~~ motherfuckers who are so fresh and so clean clean.
"Ain't nobody dope as He, He just so fresh and clean."
-The bible probably idklol
Words to live by.
I had never seen this before and took a look. And.... wow. Words fail me.
It's dog food? From OP's image I assumed it was penis enlargement pills. Looks exactly like a package of those dumbass "supplements" you can get at a gas station lol
The crazy looking food, itself, has decent reviews, but the owners of Gentle Giants used to run a puppy mill disguised as a dog rescue from what I have found about them.
There are quite a few bad reviews about the puppy mill from the mid to late 2000s. Like this one for example.
The food itself is pure garbage. Terrible for your dog.
Yea I dont really trust the reviews. I'd rather go with what a vet recommends, and it's not that. I wouldn't try it for my pup. I was just surprised that the reviews were so good for the food, in the first place.
Unfortunately, vets aren’t the most reliable source of nutritional info for your dog either. True to form in this late stage capitalist world, so, so, so many vet schools are funded by brands like Iams and science diet. They literally fund the schools and write out lessons and classes. They teach vets that your dog needs grain or whatever ingredient they use to make their food more profitable.
Not to mention, your vet most likely gets kick backs for selling science diet in the office. So…it’s a tough situation. Listen to your vet, for sure. But also use a little logic. Read the label. If corn or wheat is like the second ingredient or the third? It’s probably not a great food. And all of those big brands are guilty of doing that. Also, chicken byproduct meal? Yeah, no good. Rice? Not terrible, but it shouldn’t be a massive part of their diet. And cats, even less so.
Kibble companies got in while the market was even more unregulated than it is now, which is still way too unregulated. Kibble is convenient for us but in truth, it’s not the form the bulk of your pets food should be coming in. By nature of making it a hard dry biscuit, they need to use stuff like binders, starches. Starches that turn to sugar when interacting with the enzymes in your pets saliva. Which is why so many pets have tooth decay and gum disease by three years old.
Best advice: whole, raw foods. But the tricky part is it needs to be balanced. There are raw pet foods like primal, small batch, vital essentials, Stella and chewy’s that all come as a full, balanced meal. Even those refrigerated cooked foods are better, though still not completely biologically appropriate.
Sorry, I worked in the pet nutrition industry for years and really believe in what I’ve learned. Definitely try to get some of the raw foods, even if it’s just 1/3rd of your dogs diet. And always add good veg, a whole egg with the shell, raw goats milk, etc.
Oh—and human-consumable raw meat actually has higher allowable levels of contaminants like fecal matter and pathogens because it’s produced to be cooked away. So…yeah.
Dude also claims that his Great Dane (that he developed this food for) lived to be like 27 years old or somthing stupid like that. Great Danes live like 5-7 years, typically. Maybe like 10 on the outside if they don't die of bone cancer first (they get that a lot as a genetic side effect of being bred to be huge). The oldest confirmed dog ever was supposedly 31 years old (https://www.npr.org/2023/10/25/1208478868/bobi-worlds-oldest-dog-dies-portuguese), but these sort of age record-breaking dogs are highly suspect in general because dog life expectancy is pretty consistent by breed.
If less is more then what the hell is that?
Nothing.
Is that the Disney font?
It looks close to the Disney font but not close enough for Disney to sue them.
Gentle giant is made by the actor who had massive orgies with Adam West, also he played Robin boy wonder on the original Batman TV show.
Do his products come with a guarantee or do you have to just take him at his Ward?
Dude can’t stop telling people that he played Robin. It even says so on the package.
The high point of his life I'm sure, makes sense he'd be hardstuck
Friend, who in Hollywood at the time DIDN'T have massive orgies with Adam West?
My parents order that dog food and this picture doesn't do it justice with how fucking overwhelming the packaging is.
I worked at a pet store that carried it for a bit and just looking in its general direction was a sensory overload
Our boy here standing like how i used to draw people
I remember the first time I got a bottle of Dr. Bronners. The text on it was all about PTSD treatment and hallucinogenics and was like just a bunch of news clippings about veterans being treated with magic mushrooms and what not.
The one I have now reads like a cult leader wrote it. Almost every sentence is an incoherent mess of ranting about All-One and God.
Different bottles have different rants - I think the PTSD/shrooms one is the almond soap. Peppermint is the All-One nonsense one
We had peppermint in our bathroom for years so imagine my surprise when I read a different bottle and it not only wasn’t batshit but kinda fuckin rad
I've read the Dr Bronners bottle so many times while pooping
ALL-ONE!
EXCEPTIONS? ETERNALLY NONE!
Just an FYI, he actually wrote a book. You could buy it from Bronners for $2.00, not sure the cost now.
On a related topic to weird hippie products.
I really hate the changes that Tom's of Maine has made since they got bought out. They stopped packing their toothpaste in metal tubes and went to plastic, and they separated their deodorant in to “male and female” lines, and it’s been getting hard to find their unscented deodorant. They got bought out a while ago admittedly, but the changes have been coming on faster lately.
Like, the new ownership is trying to make them more competitive with other brands, but I always liked them for what made them different from the other big brands and it drives me up the wall how often such good products get ruined by the companies being bought out.
I have never once heard of a beloved brand bought out that didn't turn into a quality drop, product abandonment race to the bottom.
insanity soap is all you need:
Always towards the heart!
as a hobbyist graphic designer these packages are... interesting for sure
Outsider art
Don't talk shit about Bragg ACV they at least used Helvetica!
That means one of them uses a Mac
The overlap between health food store frequent flyers and Mac users is pretty high. I think we're talking about a particular subset of people mainly from the bay area here who started using a Mac in the Steve Jobs days and haven't deviated
Liquid Aminos looks like a jar of Luxardos and now I want to whip up an old fashioned at 7am lol
