If you use those detergent pods for washing your clothes, than listen up!
Procter & Gamble (P&G) said that the next time that you’re doing your wash loads, you’ll need to grab MORE then just one Tide pod to complete your one wash.
Why is this?
We know that the pods were created to give their customers an easier way to do laundry in one pod, but we didn’t know that the one pod was depending on the wash size.
They’re saying that their detergent pods weren’t created for a larger load of wash. Tracy Long, a P&G spokeswoman said, “We find that people need more clarity in judging their load size. They think it’s a large load, but it’s actually an extra-large load.”
The company is saying the washing machines nowadays are 30 percent larger than when they created their Tide Pods and that’s making the one pod less effective.
Surprisingly, the United States has a $7 billion a year laundry detergent market and the Tide Pods make about 15 percent of sales.
The chief executive Seventh Generation, John Replogle said, “It’s clearly a way to boost sale” in regards to the new pod usage instructions.
